Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scrub the sweet potatoes clean under running water to remove any dirt, then peel the skin using a vegetable peeler. Try to keep the skins slightly thick, around 1/8 inch, for the best texture.
Set the peeled sweet potato skins aside in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil over the sweet potato skins and toss to coat evenly.
Finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme, then sprinkle them into the bowl with the sweet potato skins.
Add the garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl, and thoroughly mix until all the skins are evenly seasoned.
Spread the seasoned sweet potato skins on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap to promote even crisping.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping the skins halfway through. They should be golden brown and crispy at the edges when done.
Remove the sweet potato skins from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as a snack or side dish, optionally paired with a dipping sauce of your choice.
