Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 large sweet potatoes washed and scrubbed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp salt or to taste
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper freshly ground
Toppings
  • 0.5 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

  • Cutting board

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice the sweet potatoes into uniform rounds, about ½ inch thick. Leave skins on for texture if desired.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the rounds in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding.
  5. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and caramelized on the edges.
  6. Remove from oven and immediately transfer to a serving dish.
  7. While hot, top with crumbled feta cheese, drizzle with honey, and garnish with fresh thyme leaves.
  8. Serve warm immediately.

Notes

For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mix or use hot honey.
