Crispy roasted sweet potato rounds are an easy, crowd-pleasing appetizer featuring caramelized sweet potatoes, a drizzle of honey, and tangy crumbled feta. This simple yet elegant dish is perfect for parties, potlucks, or a comforting snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1.3 lbs), scrubbed, peeled if desired
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled (about 2.5 oz)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or chives (optional)
  • 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds using a sharp knife or mandoline. Try to keep slices even for uniform cooking.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap. Use two trays if needed.
  5. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes. Flip each round, then roast for another 10–15 minutes, until bottoms are browned and edges are crispy (total roasting time: 30–35 minutes).
  6. While the rounds roast, crumble the feta and chop fresh herbs. Prepare pomegranate seeds if using.
  7. Transfer roasted rounds to a serving platter. Drizzle with honey, scatter feta crumbles, and finish with parsley, chives, or pomegranate seeds. Serve warm for best texture.

Notes

For extra crispiness, broil the rounds for 1–2 minutes at the end, watching closely. Rounds can be made ahead and reheated in the oven. For a dairy-free or vegan version, use vegan cheese and agave or maple syrup instead of honey. Add nuts or herbs for extra flavor and crunch.
