Description

Honey Feta Sweet Potato Rounds are a delightful combination of crispy roasted sweet potatoes topped with creamy feta cheese and a drizzle of honey. The contrast of textures and flavors creates a mouthwatering experience that is both savory and sweet, making them an irresistible appetizer or side dish.


Ingredients

  • Sweet Potatoes: 2 medium, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons, for drizzling
  • Feta Cheese: 1/2 cup, crumbled
  • Honey: 3 tablespoons, for drizzling
  • Fresh Thyme: 1 tablespoon, chopped (optional)
  • Salt: 1 teaspoon, to taste
  • Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are crispy and the centers are tender.
  6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the hot sweet potatoes.
  7. Drizzle honey over the feta and sweet potatoes, then return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to warm the cheese.
  8. Garnish with fresh thyme, if using, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Make-ahead: You can slice the sweet potatoes and store them in water in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Substitutions: Use goat cheese instead of feta for a tangier flavor, or maple syrup in place of honey for a vegan option.
