- If you're not a fan of rosemary, try dried thyme or oregano instead.
- Add some spice and whisk paprika or chili powder into the melted butter for an extra kick.
- To store your leftovers, transfer the cooled sweet potatoes to an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for 2-3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
