These Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon & Honey transform a simple root vegetable into a show-stopping side dish that’s both elegant and comforting. The roasting process caramelizes the edges while keeping the centers perfectly tender, and the warm cinnamon paired with golden honey creates an irresistible flavor combination. They’re versatile enough for weeknight dinners yet special enough for holiday gatherings.
If you love these sweet, caramelized flavors, you’ll also enjoy our Maple Mashed Sweet Potatoes with their similar warm spice profile and creamy texture. For another honey-glazed favorite, try the Pineapple Honey-Glazed Ham—it shares that same beautiful balance of sweet and savory that makes these potatoes so appealing.

2 large sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons honey
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
- Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into approximately 1-inch cubes. Ensure all pieces are uniform for even roasting.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Toss until well coated.
- Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Try to keep them in a single layer for optimal roasting.
- Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until they are tender and golden brown.
- Remove from oven and drizzle with honey while the potatoes are still warm, allowing the honey to melt over them.
- Serve immediately as a delicious side dish to complement your main course.
