Delicious appetizer featuring roasted sweet potatoes topped with creamy feta cheese and drizzled with honey for a perfect sweet and savory balance.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium-sized Sweet Potatoes
- 1 cup Feta Cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Fresh Herbs (optional, such as dill or thyme)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then slice them into rounds about 1/2 inch thick.
- Toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then lay them out on a baking tray.

Notes
Slice the sweet potatoes evenly for uniform cooking and avoid overcrowding the baking tray for even roasting. Adapt sweetness with honey to your taste and consider using different cheeses, like goat cheese, as a substitute for feta.
