Honey Roasted Potatoes Ingredients
Please be sure to scroll down to the recipe card below for the complete details!
- Potatoes: I used large baking potatoes for this recipe and cut them into small 1-inch (2.5 cm) chunks. Yukon Gold potatoes or a similar yellow variety will also work well.
- Butter: Salted butter is my go-to here.
- Honey: A runny honey or maple syrup is perfect.
- Seasoning: Sea salt and pepper will round off the flavors. Adjust to your liking.
How to Make Honey Roasted Potatoes
- Prepare the ingredients. Wash and dice the potatoes. Soak them in cold water, and dry them completely.
- Coat the potatoes with melted butter, honey, and seasoning.
- Bake on a lined baking sheet for 40-45 minutes in a preheated oven until golden.
Tips and Tricks
- Cut the potatoes into the same size to ensure a similar cook time.
- If you are in a rush, skip the soak and give the diced potatoes a quick double rinse.
- Dry the potatoes thoroughly. This helps to give them a crisp exterior.
- Spread out the potatoes when roasting so they don’t overlap.
Serving Suggestion
These roasted potatoes can be enjoyed hot or cold.
Possible Variations
- Honey: Use any honey you like. If yours is the thicker kind, heat it with the butter for a runny consistency. Swap for maple syrup or hot honey. Or mustard or balsamic glaze.
- Butter: Unsalted butter, ghee, or olive oil are all good options.
- Potatoes: If you can’t find baking potatoes, use baby potatoes or sweet potatoes. Even parsnips and carrots would be a tasty alternative.
- Seasoning: Add any dried (or fresh) spices you like, such as a sprinkle of garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, chili flakes, rosemary, oregano, or even cinnamon.
- Fresh herbs: Chopped parsley, dill, thyme, or rosemary.

FAQs
Yes, you can. One thing I like to do is wash and dice the potatoes, then leave them to soak for a few hours, until I’m ready to coat them and bake them.
Soaking helps remove the surface starch, making them extra sticky and crisp.
Absolutely, put them in the oven at 190 °C (375°F) until warm, and then turn on the grill setting for a few minutes.
They are the perfect side for most meals. We love them with a juicy steak, salmon, or meatballs.
