Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon and Honey Butter

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes or yams, peeled and diced into 3/4-inch to 1-inch pieces
• 5 Tbsp unsalted butter, diced into 1 Tbsp pieces and melted
• 3 Tbsp honey
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp salt, or to taste

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 13 by 9-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a small bowl, whisk the melted butter with the honey, cinnamon and salt until smooth.
3. Add the sweet potatoes to the prepared baking dish. Pour the honey butter over them, then toss until the pieces are well coated.
4. Arrange the sweet potatoes in a level layer, knowing they will overlap a bit. Bake until tender, stirring after each third of the baking time, which means twice total, about 50 – 55 minutes altogether.
5. Before serving, turn the sweet potatoes through the honey mixture collected in the bottom of the dish, then serve warm.
