Easy cinnamon roasted sweet potatoes with red onions. Using this recipe, the sweet potatoes turn out perfectly creamy in the center with well-browned, caramelized edges. The hint of cinnamon and caramelized red onions add more warmth and depth to these comforting sweet potatoes.

Ingredients 

3 pounds sweet potatoes 

extra virgin olive oil 

kosher salt

black pepper

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp to 3/4 ground allspice

2 small red onions cut into large pieces

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F, and position an oven rack in the middle

Place the sweet potato cubes (peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes) and onion pieces in a large mixing bowl. Add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (3 to 4 tablespoons) Add salt, pepper, cinnamon and allspice. Toss well to coat.

Transfer to a sheet pan. Spread the sweet potatoes and onions well in one single layer (do not crowd the pan.)

Roast for 35 to 45 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are well cooked through and charred on the edges.
