#1,105: Cinnamon Chile Roasted Potato Bites

 


Oh how I love sweet potatoes and these little babies were the perfect combination of sweet and spicy.  This is a great breakfast, snack or side dish....I may have made it more than just a few times.  :)

3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for greasing the baking sheet
5 cups sweet potatoes, diced into small bite size pieces, about 3/4" in size
1 1/2 teaspoons chile powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
dash of two of cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Grease a large baking sheet very well with oil.

Combine all the spices in a small bowl, mix together and set aside. Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl and drizzle generously with 3 tablespoons of oil. Sprinkle with spices and toss well to coat thoroughly. Spread the potatoes across the greased baking sheet and roast, stirring every 20 minutes, until browned and slightly crispy. Increase the heat to broil for 5 or so minutes at the end if they aren't crispy yet.
