A quick and easy snack featuring roasted sweet potato rounds topped with creamy goat cheese and a drizzle of honey, perfect for entertaining or a healthy bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound or 450 grams), sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
  • 4 ounces (115 grams) goat cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, a few twists

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Slice the sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch (about 6 mm) thick rounds, keeping them uniform.
  3. Toss the sweet potato rounds in a mixing bowl with olive oil, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper until lightly and evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the rounds in a single layer on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, avoiding overcrowding.
  5. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the rounds halfway through (around 12 minutes), until edges are caramelized and tender.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes.
  7. Spread about 1 tablespoon (15 grams) of softened goat cheese on each round. If desired, stir fresh thyme into the goat cheese before spreading.
  8. Drizzle honey over each round just before serving.

Notes

For a crunch, sprinkle chopped toasted pecans or walnuts after drizzling honey. To keep rounds crispy, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet and flip halfway through roasting. Use softened goat cheese for easy spreading. Drizzle honey just before serving to maintain a glossy finish. Variations include vegan substitutions with plant-based cheese and maple syrup, or adding spices like cayenne or smoked paprika for heat.
