Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for extra texture or peel them if preferred.
Step 3
Slice the sweet potatoes into rounds approximately 1/4 inch thick, ensuring even thickness for consistent cooking.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Add the sweet potato rounds to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.
Step 6
Arrange the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each slice to promote even roasting.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes on one side. Then, flip each round and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the sweet potato rounds cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added freshness and brightness. Serve warm as a side dish, appetizer, or healthy snack.
