Honey Glazed Sweet Potatoes

This savory sweet dish is great for the holidays like Thanksgiving (North America), Christmas, and Easter. It also makes a fantastic side for any entrée that might need a bit of sweetness to it.

Serves 4.

Ingredients

4 red-skinned sweet potatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons pure natural honey
2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice squeezed salt to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F (180C).

Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 1-inch square pieces. Place potatoes into a large baking dish. If you don't have a large baking dish, you can use a standard baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, and lemon juice. Pour mixture over potatoes evenly. Season with salt and bake while stirring occasionally for about 45 minutes. Be careful not to let the edges burn or stick to the dish.

Bake until potatoes are tender and soft. Remove from oven and serve warm.
