Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes, washed and sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (optional, for garnish)
Feel free to substitute the feta with goat cheese if you prefer a creamier texture. And if you’re feeling adventurous, a sprinkle of chili powder can add a delightful kick!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange the sweet potato rounds on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the sweet potatoes and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper. Toss them gently to ensure they are evenly coated.
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
- Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and immediately sprinkle the crumbled feta over the hot rounds.
- Drizzle the honey generously over the top and garnish with fresh thyme leaves if using.
- Serve warm and enjoy the sweet, savory, and tangy flavors that come together beautifully.
One tip from my personal experience: Don’t rush the roasting process. Allowing the sweet potatoes to caramelize ensures the best flavor!
