Steps:

- Meanwhile, prepare miso-scallion butter. Warm coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and ginger and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add miso, pressing miso against the saucepan with the back of a spoon to soften. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, and scallion.
- Heat over low, stirring constantly, until sugar is completely melted and mixture is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Do not boil.
- Remove sweet potatoes from the oven and flip over. Cut a slit into the sweet potato flesh and spoon miso butter over the top.

Tips:
- To achieve perfectly roasted sweet potatoes, select firm and evenly shaped potatoes. Avoid those with blemishes or soft spots.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the sweet potatoes into uniform-sized cubes. This will ensure even cooking and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others remain undercooked.
- Toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help them crisp up and develop flavorful caramelized edges.
- Spread the sweet potato cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Overcrowding the pan will prevent them from roasting evenly.
- Roast the sweet potatoes at a high temperature (425°F) for the first 15 minutes. This will help them develop a crispy exterior. Then, reduce the temperature to 375°F and continue roasting until they are tender and caramelized.
- While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the macadamia nut topping. Combine the nuts, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter in a small bowl. Mix until the nuts are evenly coated.
- Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the macadamia nut topping over them. Return the pan to the oven and roast for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the nuts are toasted and fragrant.
Conclusion:
Roasted sweet potatoes with macadamia nuts are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner, a holiday feast, or a potluck. The combination of sweet and savory flavors, along with the crunchy texture of the macadamia nuts, is sure to please everyone at the table.
