1. Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prep the Sweet Potatoes
Wash and peel your sweet potatoes (peeling is optional if you like the rustic look). Slice into ½-inch rounds, making sure they’re all about the same thickness so they roast evenly.
3. Season and Arrange
Toss the rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then lay them flat in a single layer on your baking sheet.
4. Roast to Perfection
Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the sweet potatoes are tender, slightly crispy on the edges, and golden in color.
5. Add the Toppings
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with crumbled feta, drizzle with honey, and garnish with fresh herbs.
6. Serve & Enjoy
Serve warm as an appetizer, side dish, or snack. They’re best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, when the feta is soft and the honey is warm.
🧀 Flavor Profile: Sweet Meets Savory
The magic of this recipe lies in its flavor contrast. The sweet potatoes develop a caramelized richness when roasted, which is beautifully offset by the tangy saltiness of feta. Honey adds a glossy finish, enhancing the natural sweetness while balancing the sharpness of the cheese. Fresh herbs add a burst of freshness, tying everything together.
Think of it as a mini gourmet bite that gives you the sensation of eating something indulgent while still being healthy and nourishing.
