Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Slice them into rounds about 1/4 inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil with minced garlic cloves. Stir in sea salt and black pepper.
Lay the sweet potato rounds on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Brush the garlic-infused olive oil evenly over the sweet potato slices.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the slices are golden and crispy on the edges.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme.
Once the sweet potato rounds are cooked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Sprinkle the chopped rosemary and thyme over the warm sweet potato rounds.
Serve immediately for a crispier texture, as the rounds will soften over time.
