Sweet and Spicy Sweet Potatoes

I absolutely LOVE sweet potatoes! I love them made EVERYWAY! But I really love them spiced to bring out their flavor even more. 

I created this spice blend because I wanted something that resembled a spicy barbecue flavor. I blended these seasonings together and was amazed at how delicious it was! 

Here is what you'll need to make these amazing sweet potatoes.

• 
  

1 Large Sweet Potato, cut into wedges or cubed, whatever you prefer.

• 
  

1/4 cup of Olive Oil

• 
  

1 1/2 teaspoon of Sea Salt

• 
  

1 teaspoon of Cinnamon

• 
  

2 teaspoon Chili Powder

• 
  

1/4 teaspoon Cayenne

• 
  

1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper

• 
  

5 Fresh Garlic Cloves, minced

Preheat the oven to 375°.

In a large baking dish, arrange the sweet potatoes. 

In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil and all of the seasonings. 

Pour the mixture over the sweet potatoes. I like to use my hands to rub and distribute the oil and spices over each sweet potato to make sure that it's very evenly flavored. 

Bake for 30 to 45 minutes. And then let them sit to cool a bit before serving. 

This dish pairs well with so many foods! I hope that you love this recipe as much as I do! ❤️
