Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for extra texture or peel them if preferred.
Slice the sweet potatoes into rounds approximately 1/4 inch thick, ensuring even thickness for consistent cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Add the sweet potato rounds to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.
Arrange the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each slice to promote even roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes on one side. Then, flip each round and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the sweet potato rounds cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added freshness and brightness. Serve warm as a side dish, appetizer, or healthy snack.
