Instructions
- First, boil the sweet potato rounds for 10 minutes to soften them. Drain and pat dry.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly brush a rimmed baking pan with melted butter.
- Place each sweet potato round on the pan. Use the bottom of a glass jar or mug to smash each sweet potato.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining melted butter, sea salt, black pepper, and chopped herbs. Stir to combine.
- Brush this herb butter over the tops of each potato round.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the potatoes have reached your desired level of crispiness.
- Finally, remove from the oven. If desired, garnish with roasted garlic and more herb butter.
Notes
- ½ inch slices.
- Choose large sweet potatoes that are long.
- Wash and dry the potatoes before boiling.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into equal sized, ½ inch slices.
- Use a rimmed baking pan to prevent spillage.
- For extra crispy potatoes, broil for 2 to 3 minutes at the end of the baking time.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
