Description
After reading how good sweet potatoes are for us, I set out to find a fast, easy recipe that was also delicious. My sister and I developed this tasty side dish. The cayenne pepper can be increased to taste. I have found these wedges are even better reheated the next day, so make a bunch!
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 dash cayenne pepper
Directions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
- 2. Place potatoes into a bowl and drizzle with oil.
- 3. Mix brown sugar, cumin, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl with a fork. Sprinkle mixture over potatoes to coat. Lay out wedges on the prepared baking sheet.
- 4. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn the potatoes. Increase the heat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Continue to cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Serve.
