Ingredients
- Medium-sized sweet potatoes
- Crumbled feta cheese
- Honey
- Olive oil
- Fresh herbs (rosemary or thyme)
- Pepper
- Salt
- Chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Then, slice them into rounds about 1/4 inch thick.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Lay the seasoned sweet potato rounds in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Once the sweet potatoes are roasted, remove them from the oven and sprinkle crumbled feta over each round.
- Return them to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to allow the cheese to soften and melt slightly.
- After removing the rounds from the oven, drizzle honey over the top of each round while they are still warm.
- Finally, sprinkle with fresh herbs (rosemary or thyme) for a pop of color and added freshness.
