Roasted Sweet Potato Rounds with Honey & Feta is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish or appetizer featuring tender, caramelized sweet potato slices, perfectly seasoned and topped with salty feta cheese, sweet honey, and fresh parsley for a balanced and flavorful bite.

  • Total Time: 35-40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Sweet Potatoes

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, washed and scrubbed

Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Toppings

  • ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Slice Sweet Potatoes: Carefully slice the washed sweet potatoes into ½-inch thick rounds to ensure even cooking and roasting.
  3. Toss with Seasonings: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika until each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the seasoned sweet potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to allow for proper roasting and browning.
  5. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Roast them in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning the slices halfway through to ensure they become tender and develop a golden-brown crust.
  6. Cool Slightly: Remove the roasted sweet potato rounds from the oven and allow them to cool slightly, making them easier to handle and enhancing the flavors.
  7. Assemble Dish: Arrange the sweet potato rounds on a serving platter, then sprinkle crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top to add a salty contrast.
  8. Add Honey and Garnish: Drizzle the honey over the feta-topped sweet potatoes and garnish with freshly chopped parsley to add freshness and color.
  9. Serve: Serve the dish warm or at room temperature, perfect as a flavorful side or appetizer.
