Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Ham

Published: Dec 8, 2014 · Modified: Oct 16, 2020 by greenlitebitescom · This post may contain affiliate links · 6 Comments

This is my new favorite dish! I made it the night before a competition this weekend and then made it again Sunday for something quick to grab out of the fridge.

I don't normally add lots of things when I roast veggies but the addition of the maple syrup and spices really compliment the sweet potatoes and ham. I roasted it just to the brink of burnt, helping the caramelization process and really drawing out even more flavor.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes and HamOf course no one in the house likes this but me. I think I can convert the kids in time but The Husband's indifference towards sweet potatoes is here to stay. He's just not a fan.

Here's what I did...

  • 2 sweet potatoes, cut into about ¾-inch cubes (600g)
  • 10 oz ham, cut into ¾-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil (14g) (Your favorite oil will be fine)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (20g)
  • ~¼ tbsp molasses (5g)
  • 2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp allspice

Preheat the oven to 425 Degrees.

Throw everything in a bowl and toss to coat.

    I just made this tonight and it was so good! I used Hormel Extra Lean ham (just because I had it) and fresh rosemary, and it was so flavorful. Loved it. Thanks Ronnie, and I appreciate the PP values too.

      This time I used what was labeled "Cottage" ham but I've used just plain old deli ham cut into cubes. You can really use anything you like.
