Description
Sweet potato rounds drizzled with honey and sprinkled with creamy feta cheese are a delightful treat perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- Infinity large sweet potatoes, scrubbed clean and sliced into ½-inch thick rounds
- Infinity tablespoons olive oil (enough to coat all rounds evenly)
- Infinity teaspoon salt (season generously)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- Infinity teaspoon smoked paprika (to taste)
- ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
- ¼ cup honey
- Infinity tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (use enough to garnish generously)
Instructions
- Begin by setting your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will create the perfect environment for roasting, allowing the sweet potatoes to caramelize beautifully.
- Once the oven is heating up, take your sweet potatoes and slice them into rounds that are about ½ inch thick. This thickness will ensure they cook evenly, resulting in tender bites of sweetness.
- Transfer the sliced sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Drizzle enough olive oil to coat all rounds evenly, and then add the smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the rounds gently until they are well coated in the seasonings. This step is crucial for enhancing the flavor of the sweet potatoes during roasting.
- Spread the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overlapping, as this will ensure they cook evenly and get that desired crispiness. Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the sweet potatoes for about 25 to 30 minutes. Flip the rounds halfway through to encourage even browning. They should come out golden and tender.
- Once your sweet potato rounds are perfectly roasted, remove them from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes. This brief cooling time allows them to firm up a bit, making it easier to handle. To serve, place the rounds on a platter, top them with crumbled feta cheese, and then give them a generous drizzle of honey.
- Finish the dish by sprinkling freshly chopped parsley over the top for a pop of color and additional freshness. These roasted sweet potato rounds can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, making them excellent for any setting.
