Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound apples
  • 1 pound sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 Pinch salt

Instructions
 

  • Prep oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (200 C)
  • Prep vegetables: Wash apples and sweet potatoes. Cut the ends from sweet potatoes, then cut them into small 1/2 inch cubes for roasting. Slice apples into quarters, then cut into 1/2 inch cubes. You do not need to peel apples and sweet potatoes before roasting.
  • Roast vegetables: Arrange the sweet potatoes and apples on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, tossing the vegetables to completely cover with oil. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Place sheet pan in the oven and roast for 35 minutes, flipping sweet potatoes and apples halfway through to roast on all sides.
  • Serve vegetables: Remove pan from oven, arrange vegetables on a plate and serve as a side dish or let cool and use as a salad topping.

Notes

  • Tools Needed: sheet pan, knife set, cutting board
  • Prep Ahead: Wash and cut vegetables and apples ahead of time to reduce prep time before cooking. If serving cold on salads or bowls, you can make this recipe up to three days ahead of time.
  • Leftovers and Storage: Vegetables and apples should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For best taste and texture, do not freeze and reheat.
  • Nutrition notes: Nutrition information is estimated for only ingredients in the recipe, not the additional spice options given. This simple roasted vegetable recipe is a good source of fiber, vitamin C, and vitamin A.
