Description

Delicious and easy Roasted Sweet Potato Rounds topped with tangy feta cheese, sweet honey drizzle, and fresh parsley. Perfect as a savory side dish or a healthy snack, these sweet potato rounds are roasted to crispy perfection with a hint of paprika and seasoned with salt and pepper.


Ingredients

Scale

Sweet Potatoes

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds)

Seasonings & Oil

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (to taste for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potatoes thoroughly, then slice them into rounds about ½ inch thick to ensure even roasting.
  3. Season Sweet Potatoes: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Add the sweet potato rounds and toss well to coat each slice evenly with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Lay the seasoned sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap to allow for proper roasting and crisping.
  5. Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the sweet potatoes for 20-25 minutes. Flip the rounds halfway through cooking to ensure they are crispy on the edges and tender in the center.
  6. Add Toppings: Remove the roasted sweet potato rounds from the oven. Immediately sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly on top so it slightly softens with the heat.
  7. Drizzle Honey & Garnish: Drizzle honey over the sweet potato rounds for a perfect balance of sweetness, then sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for color and freshness before serving.

Notes

  • Choose sweet potatoes of similar size for even cooking.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option, but feta cheese would then need replacing with a vegan cheese.
  • Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
  • Optional: add a sprinkle of chili flakes for a spicy kick.
