Ingredients

  • 2 sweet potatoes medium, washed and sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 ½ tsp cinnamon ground
  • ½ tsp nutmeg ground
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, cinnamon, nutmeg, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
    2 sweet potatoes, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 ½ tsp cinnamon, ½ tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper
  • Spread the rounds evenly on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
  • Serve warm as a savoury side dish or snack.

Cooking Tips

  • Uniform Slicing: Ensure all slices are 1/4-inch thick for even cooking. A mandoline slicer can make this easier.
  • Spice Variations: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick or swap paprika for smoked paprika for a deeper flavour.
  • Crispier Texture: Roast the slices for an additional 5 minutes for extra crispness, keeping an eye to prevent burning.
  • Serving Suggestions: Pair with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of tahini for a creamy contrast.
