- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and slice the sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.
Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Layer the sweet potato slices and green tomato slices alternately in the baking dish, slightly overlapping them.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, honey or maple syrup, fresh thyme, garlic powder, kosher salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the mixture evenly over the layered vegetables, making sure both the tomatoes and sweet potatoes are coated.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and sprinkle the shredded parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the bake.
Melt the butter and drizzle it over the breadcrumb topping.
Return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
Allow the bake to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
