Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium-sized sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish
  • Optional toppings: chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans), pomegranate seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash, peel, and slice the sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
  3. Place the sweet potato slices on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each round with olive oil on both sides, then sprinkle with salt and a pinch of pepper.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip the slices and roast for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until lightly golden and crispy around the edges.
  5. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and drizzle honey over each slice.
  6. Sprinkle a small amount of crumbled feta cheese over each sweet potato round. Return the baking sheet to the oven for 5 minutes to warm the cheese.
  7. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves. Add optional toppings like chopped nuts or pomegranate seeds for extra texture and flavor.
  8. Arrange the rounds on a serving plate and serve warm.

Notes

Ensure sweet potato slices are evenly coated with olive oil and arranged in a single layer for optimal crispiness. For extra crunch, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
