Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
Place the sweet potato chunks into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil and canola oil over them. Toss well to ensure that all the potato pieces are evenly coated with the oil. -
Mix the Spices
In a separate small bowl, combine the cumin powder, chili powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper. Stir the spices together until they are well mixed. -
Season the Potatoes
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the sweet potatoes. Toss the potatoes again to ensure that they are fully coated with the spices. -
Arrange on a Baking Sheet
Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes out in a single layer on a cookie sheet or baking pan. Make sure they are not overcrowded to allow for even cooking and crispiness. -
Bake
Place the baking sheet on the lowest rack of your oven. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges. -
Serve Warm
Serve these delightful potatoes warm right out of the oven. They’re so irresistible that they’ll be gone in no time!
