Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly and slice them in half lengthwise.
Place the sweet potato halves cut-side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Drizzle the cut surfaces generously with olive oil.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Flip the sweet potatoes over so they are cut-side down on the parchment paper.
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the potatoes are tender and the cut sides are deeply caramelized.
Remove from the oven, flip over to reveal the caramelized side, and serve warm.
