Pumpkin Spice Roasted Sweet Potatoes

Fall is here, as is all things pumpkin spice. Coffee fans cheer the day their beloved pumpkin spice lattes become available, ringing in the change of seasons. Unfortunately, living in Florida, we are still rather warm and rainy. I long for cooler Autumn weather and all the wonderful Fall treats like soups and stews, hot drinks, and everything apple and pumpkin.

I used to be a huge pumpkin spice fan, but after having a baby, I can no longer drink a pumpkin spice latte without getting a bit queasy. I have no idea why, I just can’t stomach them anymore. I can use and eat the actual pumpkin spice sparingly without it bothering me, but there is something about a pumpkin spice flavored coffee that doesn’t sit well.

These roasted sweet potatoes, on the other hand, are perfect with the addition of pumpkin spice. My house smelled amazing while these were roasting, even though it was dreary and raining outside, it smelled like Fall inside – all I need are some changing leaves and sweater weather and I’d be set. I hope you get a chance to make this simple and delicious side dish. It would be perfect for the Thanksgiving table as well.
