Instructions
Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the halved sweet potatoes cut-side up. Brush lightly with olive oil.
Make the Miso Glaze
Whisk together the white miso paste, maple syrup, and rice vinegar in a small bowl until completely smooth. The glaze should be thick enough to coat a spoon without running.
Glaze and Roast
Spoon the miso glaze generously over the cut surface of each sweet potato. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes until the glaze is deeply caramelized and the potatoes are fork-tender.
Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle sesame seeds over each piece and serve warm as a side or light main dish.
