Notes
- Seasonings: If using extra seasoning, I'd add no more than about 1 teaspoon total and adjust the amount of salt added according to your seasoning mix.
- Cut size: Smaller cubes (½-inch) = crispier edges, faster cooking. Larger cubes (¾-inch) = softer centers.
- Skins: If you like eating the skin, feel free to leave it on! Just scrub the potatoes well before dicing.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 4–5 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for the crispiest texture.
- Prep ahead: Peel and cube the sweet potatoes up to 2 days in advance and refrigerate. Toss with oil and seasonings right before roasting for the crispiest texture.
