πŸ§€ The Parmesan and fresh herbs create a golden crust, offering an elegant yet simple way to elevate your meal with wholesome ingredients.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 and Β½ tablespoons starch (such as cornstarch, potato starch, or arrowroot)

2 medium orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, sliced into ΒΌ-inch rounds

2 tablespoons high heat oil (such as avocado oil)

2 tablespoons fresh herbs (thyme preferred, or sage or rosemary), chopped

Β½ cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Sea salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

1-Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet: Start by preheating your oven to 450Β°F (230Β°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid any sticking mishaps. This step sets the stage for those golden, crispy results that everyone loves.

2-Coat the sweet potato rounds: Next, place the sweet potato rounds in a bowl and toss them with the starch until they’re evenly coated this is what gives them that awesome crunch. Then, drizzle on the oil and give everything another good mix to make sure it’s all covered. Add in the fresh herbs, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper, and toss once more to blend the flavors beautifully.

3-Arrange and roast: Arrange the rounds in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet, making sure they have space to crisp up properly. Pop them in the oven and roast for 50 minutes, remembering to turn them halfway through for even browning. The total time is about 1 hour and 5 minutes, with 15 minutes for prep and 50 for cooking, and you’ll end up with a dish that’s soft inside and crispy outside.

Notes

🌟 Coating sweet potatoes in starch is key to achieving a crispy texture.
πŸ”₯ Use a high smoke point oil like avocado oil for roasting at high temperatures.

πŸ§€ Freshly grated Parmesan cheese offers the best flavor and crust texture.
🌿 Vary herbs (thyme, sage, rosemary) to match your other dishes.
πŸ§‚ Use sea salt for optimal seasoning and flavor balance.
