Roasted Honey Cinnamon Butter Sweet Potatoes get roasted with the incredible flavor of cinnamon honey butter to create the absolute perfect side dish!
Sweet Potato Recipe
I always get so excited for Thanksgiving. I especially love that we can have Thanksgiving at our new house and it can host the entire family. It makes it a whole lot easier preparing everything now that I have double ovens. I can be cooking the turkey and all of the delicious side dishes that I want to include.
I am always trying to find new and different side dishes to include. And really, the side dishes end up being the star of the dinner table. This year I decided to roast the sweet potatoes in the most amazing honey cinnamon butter glaze. And boy did these turn out delicious!
I love sweet potatoes with cinnamon butter so I thought why not roast them with a honey cinnamon butter? One of my favorite ways to make vegetables is by roasting them. They get the slightly crisp edge and the tender center. Now imagine roasted sweet potatoes in a honey cinnamon butter glaze. Holy delicious!
How do I roast sweet potatoes?
- Toss the sweet potatoes in the melted honey cinnamon butter mixture.
- Pour to make an even layer on a baking sheet.
- Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 25-30 minutes stirring once in between.
These sweet potatoes are so easy to make and an incredibly delicious side dish. Just imagine a roasted sweet potato with a honey butter cinnamon drizzle. You may have just created one of the best side dishes at the dinner table! You are going to love them just as much as our family did!

Could I use frozen sweet potato? Just wondering because I’ve got some in freezer right now.

I would let them thaw before using them in this recipe!

Hi! I just found this recipe! Should I use unsalted butter? I noticed your reply to someone else. Do you prefer 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes?
Reply
Sorry for the confusion! I would use unsalted butter and cook at 425 degrees for about 30 minutes, stirring the potatoes about halfway through.

strongly suggest lining the pan!!!

Love this recipe! So easy and delicious. I will definitely be making again. Next time I will leave a pic. I just was so ready to dig in. :o)Reply
Excellent recipe – so tasty and delicious! I baked at 375 degrees for 25 minutes and turned about perfect. Definitely making again. Thanks for sharing!Reply
I guess these can be frozen? I want to take them to my brother’s but it’s four hours away. I would expect to use them the day I arrive or next day at the latest.
Any suggestions, Alyssa?
By the way, your recipes truly are many of the best I’ve ever tasted. I’m not kidding or sucking up here. It’s just a fact. I love getting your emails and trying out new recipes. I have not been disappointed yet. I’m a very fussy eater and a couple of recipes have introduced me to spices I swore I’d never try because I was sure they were too hot or just unpleasant to my taste buds….I was so wrong. (Still can’t handle cayenne or red pepper but now will use coriander and cumin so thanks for that.)

Thanks for the recipe. It looks great and I am alway looking for a new way to cook sweet potatoes. I have a question on the degree for the oven and the cook time. Which is correct?
Reply
Yes, it is confusing. I prefer the one in the instructions list. 375 for 30-35 minutes. Hope that helps! XOXO

On your post for roasted honey cinnamon butter sweet potatoes your narrative above the recipe says you cook it at 375 the recipe says 425, which is the correct temperature
Reply
In your description it said bake at 375 for 25-30 mins and on the recipe it said 400 for 30-35 mins. Which should I do?
