Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes:
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into uniform 1-inch cubes.
Season the Sweet Potato Cubes:
In a mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Arrange on Baking Sheet:
Spread the seasoned sweet potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Roast in the Oven:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the sweet potato cubes for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through with a spatula for even browning.
Check for Crispiness:
Continue roasting until the sweet potato cubes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.

Tips for Success:
Make sure to cut the sweet potato cubes into uniform sizes to ensure even roasting.
