– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1/4 tsp salt

2. 2. In a large bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes, brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
3. 3. Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

For a creamier texture, mash the roasted yams with a potato masher or ricer before serving. You can also add a splash of heavy cream or milk to the mashed yams. Adjust the seasoning to your taste, adding more salt, cinnamon, or nutmeg as desired.
