Roasted Sweet Potato Rounds with Honey & Feta
Roast seasoned sweet potato rounds at 425°F until tender and caramelized.Top the warm slices with crumbled feta and a drizzle of honey.Finish with fresh thyme or parsley and serve warm.
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes about 1 pound, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 ounces crumbled feta cheese about 3/4 cup
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves or chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the sweet potato rounds in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, cinnamon, sea salt, and black pepper, then toss until the slices are evenly coated.
- Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Leave a little space between them and avoid overlapping.
- Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping the rounds halfway through cooking. They are ready when the centers are tender and the edges are lightly browned and caramelized.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately scatter the crumbled feta over the warm Roasted Sweet Potato Rounds with Honey & Feta so the cheese softens slightly.
- Drizzle evenly with honey and finish with fresh thyme leaves or chopped parsley.
- Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish.
Notes
For the best texture, serve the rounds shortly after adding the feta and honey. If you prefer a less sweet finish, reduce the honey slightly or serve it on the side.
Fresh thyme adds an earthy flavor that complements the feta particularly well, while parsley gives the dish a lighter, fresher finish.
These rounds pair nicely with roasted chicken, grilled fish, lentil dishes, grain bowls, or a crisp green salad. You can also arrange them on a platter for a simple feta sweet potato recipe suitable for gatherings and holiday meals.
