# Ingredients:
→ Main
01 -
2 pounds red Garnet or Jewel yams (sweet potatoes)
02 -
2 tablespoons avocado oil or extra-virgin olive oil
03 -
1 tablespoon maple syrup (skip if you want)
04 -
¾ teaspoon kosher salt or sea salt OR ½ teaspoon regular salt
05 -
½ teaspoon chili powder
06 -
½ teaspoon garlic powder
07 -
½ teaspoon paprika
08 -
½ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon pepper
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat your oven to 425°F. Put parchment paper on a big 15x21 baking tray (or grab two smaller trays instead).
02 -
Take the skin off your sweet potatoes and dice them into ½-inch chunks. If they roll around, slice a bit off the bottom so they stay put. First cut them into ½-inch slices, then chop those into cubes.
03 -
Dump the cubes onto your baking sheet and mix them with the oil, maple syrup, and all your spices until they're coated.
04 -
Lay the potatoes out flat with space between each piece so they don't crowd each other.
05 -
Bake at 425°F for about 25-35 minutes, making sure to flip the sweet potatoes around at the 15-minute mark.
