Cut your large sweet potatoes into roughly even—sized chunks (or take the laziness a step further and buy them ready cut!).
Spread on a baking sheet and drizzle with roughly a tablespoon of maple syrup per large sweet potato. You can adjust that quantity based on how sweet you like your food. Sprinkle black pepper to your taste. Toss well to coat.
Bake at 350ºF for about 1 hour, until fork tender. If you remember, mix the chunks around once or twice during that hour.
