Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Butter Roasted Sweet Potatoes
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then slice them into uniform 1-inch rounds.
  3. In a mixing bowl, melt the unsalted butter, then whisk in kosher salt, black pepper, and brown sugar.
  4. Add the sliced sweet potatoes to the butter glaze and toss until evenly coated.
  5. Arrange the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the baking sheet.
