Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, select sweet potatoes that are about the same size. If you have sweet potatoes of varying sizes, cut the larger ones into smaller pieces so that they cook at the same rate as the smaller ones.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork before baking. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from bursting.
  • For a crispier texture, roast the sweet potatoes at a higher temperature for a shorter amount of time. For a softer texture, roast them at a lower temperature for a longer amount of time.
  • While the sweet potatoes are roasting, make the cinnamon-orange glaze. To make the glaze, combine melted butter, orange juice, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the flavors have melded together.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are roasted, remove them from the oven and brush them with the cinnamon-orange glaze. Return the sweet potatoes to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, or until the glaze is set.
  • Serve the cinnamon-orange sweet potatoes hot, garnished with chopped fresh orange zest or a dollop of yogurt.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon-orange sweet potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They're perfect for a weeknight dinner, a holiday feast, or a potluck. So next time you're looking for a side dish that's both easy to make and delicious, give cinnamon-orange sweet potatoes a try. You won't be disappointed!
