Ingredients
  

  • 3 lbs sweet potatoes* chopped into 1" pieces
  • 3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • freshly cracked black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425F (220C)
  • Toss sweet potato pieces, olive oil, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl and spread evenly over an ungreased baking sheet (make sure all sweet potato pieces are coated in oil and drizzle any remaining oil from the bowl over the potatoes in the pan).
  • Once oven is preheated, transfer baking sheet to the oven and roast potatoes for 25-35 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork (if your potato pieces are smaller they may take less time and if they are larger they may take longer). Use a spatula to turn the potatoes halfway through baking.
  • Serve warm.
