Crash Hot Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients (I doubled the spices so I could make mine extra spicy):
2 medium sized sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1.5" chunks
1 & 1/2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon New Mexico chili powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/8 teaspoon granulated garlic

Directions:
Put 1/2 teaspoon of salt in 2 quarts of water and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and set the timer for 10 minutes – time from when you put the potatoes in, not from when the water starts to boil. Cook potatoes until soft but not cooked through. Remove and cool.

Blend together remaining ingredients. I also added cayenne pepper. Lay potato slices onto parchment or greased cookie sheet and smash. I had to spray a glass w/ cooking spray to smash. Drizzle each smashed potato slice w/ 2 T melted butter mixed w/ 2 T olive oil. Sprinkle w/ spice mixture. Roast at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. Turn them over, sprinkle with butter and spice mixture and roast for another 10 minutes.
