Baked Sweet Potato Slices
Description
This recipe for Baked Sweet Potato Slices involves peeling and slicing medium sweet potatoes into roughly 1-inch rounds. The slices are coated with extra virgin olive oil and seasoned with salt, black pepper, and fresh or dried rosemary for aromatic flavor.
They are arranged in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet and roasted at 375°F for about 30 minutes. During roasting, the sweet potato rounds soften and develop a slight golden color, indicating caramelization and tenderness throughout.
The resulting slices offer a balance between soft interiors and gently crisped edges with herbal notes from the rosemary. These baked slices can complement a variety of dishes or serve as a simple vegetarian side. Served warm, they highlight the naturally sweet and earthy flavor of the sweet potatoes enhanced by minimal seasoning.
