How to Make Cinnamon Roasted Sweet Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
  2. Wash and thoroughly dry 1 kg of sweet potatoes. Cut them into 2 cm thick rounds.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Toss the sweet potato rounds in the oil and honey mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Place the sweet potato rounds in a single layer in a baking dish. Add 2-3 cinnamon sticks to the dish.
  6. Roast for 20 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven. Arrange the cinnamon sticks underneath the sweet potato slices, turning the slices to expose any uncooked sides.
  8. Return to the oven and roast for another 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized.
  9. Serve immediately on a platter, garnished with the cinnamon sticks.
