Oven Roasted Honey-Glazed Sweet Potatoes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 - 3 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes, cut into about 2-inch pieces (or 3-3 1/2 lbs yams, cut into about 2-inch pieces)
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup honey
2 teaspoons lemon juice
salt (to taste)
fresh ground pepper (to taste)

Preparation

Set oven to 350 degrees F.
Pat all the potato cubes thoroughly dry using paper towel/s.
Arrange the sweet potato cubes (if possible in a single layer) in a lightly-buttered 13 x 9-inch dish.
In a small saucepan or the microwave stir together butter, honey and lemon juice until butter melts.
Pour butter mixture over the sweet potatoes; toss well to coat.
Sprinkle with salt and lots of black pepper.
Bake uncovered until just fork-tender stirring and turning with a spatula or wooden spoon (about 40 minutes, might take shorter or longer time depending on the size of sweet potato pieces, try not overbake the sweet potatoes or they will be too soft).
