Description

These Roasted Sweet Potato rounds prove that you do not need extra sugar to make a dish that everyone will beg for. They are naturally sweet, incredibly savory, and healthy enough to eat every single day. This recipe balances the natural sugars of the potato with salty parmesan and fresh herbs for the perfect mix of textures: crispy on the edges and soft in the middle.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (substitute with avocado or melted coconut oil)
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (substitute with nutritional yeast for vegan option)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs, like parsley and thyme (or 1/2 tablespoon dried)
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prep the Oven: Heat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Oil and Season: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper until every piece is coated.
  3. Arrange and Roast: Lay the rounds on the baking sheet in a single layer without overlapping. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until edges are crispy and golden-brown.
  4. Prepare Topping: While potatoes roast, mix the Greek yogurt (or sour cream) with garlic powder in a small bowl.
  5. Assemble: Let rounds cool for 2 minutes. Add a small spoonful of the garlic cream to the center of each round. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese, diced red onions, and fresh green herbs.

Notes

Don’t crowd the pan; give each round space to ensure they get crispy rather than steaming. Scrub the potatoes well but leave the skin on for extra nutrients and texture. For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the oil before roasting.
