Description
Crispy roasted sweet potato rounds topped with tangy feta cheese and drizzled with honey. This simple 50-minute appetizer perfectly balances sweet and savory flavors.
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1 pound each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scrub sweet potatoes and pat them dry. Slice into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
- Place the rounds in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Toss until every slice is coated.
- Arrange the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overlap them.
- Roast for 15 minutes. Flip each round. Continue roasting for 12 to 15 minutes more until edges are golden brown and centers are tender.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Let the sweet potatoes rest for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
- Transfer the roasted rounds to a serving platter. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top.
- Drizzle honey over the sweet potatoes in a zigzag pattern. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Sweet potatoes should be sliced to a uniform thickness for even cooking.
- Ensure the sweet potatoes are in a single layer for proper roasting and crisping.
