Peel and chop 3 medium sweet potatoes into uniform chunks around 3/4 of an inch.

Add the cubes to a large rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

Optionally, add cinnamon, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, or cumin for extra flavor.

Toss the sweet potatoes to coat them evenly with the oil and seasonings.

Spread the sweet potatoes into a single even layer on the baking sheet.

Roast in a 425°F (220°C) oven for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring halfway through.

Check for doneness: they should be tender in the center and brown on the outside.
