Description
These roasted sweet potatoes are caramelized, golden, and bursting with flavor. A touch of olive oil, salt, and thyme transforms them into a side dish so good, you’ll want to eat them straight off the pan. Simple, wholesome, and absolutely irresistible.
Ingredients
4–5 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut crosswise in half
3–4 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
1 teaspoon pink salt or kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Parchment paper (for easy cleanup)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place sweet potato halves cut-side up on the tray. Drizzle generously with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and thyme, and massage lightly into the flesh.
Flip potatoes cut-side down. Drizzle a little more olive oil over the skins.
Roast for 40 minutes, or until the bottoms are deeply caramelized and potatoes are fork-tender.
Serve hot as a side dish or on their own — they’re that good!
