Description
Crispy sweet potato rounds tossed in a honey-balsamic glaze, topped with feta and fresh herbs. An easy side dish or appetizer.
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1/8 inch thick)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme (optional)
- Toasted pine nuts for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss sweet potato slices with olive oil until evenly coated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together honey, balsamic vinegar, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the honey-balsamic mixture over the oiled sweet potatoes and toss to coat.
- Arrange sweet potato slices in a single layer on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through. For extra crispy edges, broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Sprinkle with feta cheese, rosemary, and thyme (if using). Garnish with toasted pine nuts (optional).
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- For spicier rounds, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze.
- Substitute dried herbs (1 tsp rosemary, 1/2 tsp thyme) if fresh herbs aren’t available.
- Other cheeses like goat cheese or blue cheese can be used.
- Increase honey to 1/3 cup for a sweeter version.
- To make ahead, prepare up to the baking stage and refrigerate. Add a few minutes to baking time when reheating.
