These were SO delicious! I had 4 small sweet potatoes, so I used those and I think it was maybe 3 cups worth...and my husband and I ate them ALL! I didn't have any cayenne, so I subbed with red pepper flakes. I also added some freshly minced garlic and added it about 5 minutes before they were done. Although mine cooked up in about 20 minutes...I think I cut my cubes much smaller than 1 inch. But it was really great with the garlic! MMMMM I think I'll be making this often just for myself for lunch and what not for the upcoming winter Thanks!!

WOW. IN the interest of time, I cubed and boiled my sweet taters, then mashed them and added butter, brown sugar and the chili powder. WOW - they are FANTASTIC!!

Oh yummy! My husband "doesn't like sweet potatoes" until now! I used 2 sweet potatoes, 1 tsp of olive oil, splenda instead of brown sugar, salt substitute and stayed with the 1/4 tsp cayenne even though I had only 2 potatoes. This is also our, and especially my; favorite sweet potatoe recipe. Thank you very much.

This is a regular in our home. My family loves these, and the only way my DH will eat sweet potatoes. A nice balance of sweet and spicy. I have usually baked this at 350 degrees, but will try it next time at the higher temperature, which probably gives more carmelization. This is the perfect side dish for grilled meats. Thanks for posting it NurseDi.
