Notes
- I did not peel my potatoes. This is just a personal preference and won't affect the way the potatoes cook.
- Cook times may very based on size; check on your potatoes about every 5 minutes after the first 15 minutes of roasting.
- Serving tip: If you're serving these for a crowd and find that your sweet potatoes get mushy after you've transferred them to a serving bowl, try using a serving tray instead. That way they can spread out and stay crispy instead of steaming up from all the heat of them being on top of each other.
