Ingredients
- 3 medium sweet potatoes (about 775g)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 1 tablespoon honey (hot or regular) — about 21g
- 20g crumbled feta cheese (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Substitution Ideas
- Dairy-free: Omit the feta or use a plant-based cheese alternative.
- No honey: Swap maple syrup or another liquid sweetener.
- Oil swap: Avocado oil works well for higher-heat roasting.
- Milder version: Leave out the red pepper flakes.
Variation Ideas
- Extra crispy: Roast 5–10 minutes longer, watching closely.
- Spicy honey: Use hot honey or add a pinch of cayenne to the honey drizzle.
- Mediterranean: Add lemon zest and more parsley when serving.
- Savory: Skip the honey and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice instead.
Recipe Tip
Spread the sweet potato slices in one even layer on the sheet pan. Crowding the pan causes steaming rather than roasting and prevents crisp edges.
What to Serve With
- Grilled or roasted chicken
- Steak or pork tenderloin
- Salmon or shrimp
- Added to a meal prep bowl with protein and vegetables
