Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Scrub the sweet potatoes clean under running water to remove any dirt, then peel the skin using a vegetable peeler. Try to keep the skins slightly thick, around 1/8 inch, for the best texture.

Step 3

Set the peeled sweet potato skins aside in a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil over the sweet potato skins and toss to coat evenly.

Step 5

Finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme, then sprinkle them into the bowl with the sweet potato skins.

Step 6

Add the garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl, and thoroughly mix until all the skins are evenly seasoned.

Step 7

Spread the seasoned sweet potato skins on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap to promote even crisping.

Step 8

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping the skins halfway through. They should be golden brown and crispy at the edges when done.

Step 9

Remove the sweet potato skins from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as a snack or side dish, optionally paired with a dipping sauce of your choice.
