Ingredients:
- 3 lbs sweet potatoes, scrubbed and sliced into 1-inch rounds
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Note: Ensure the oven is fully heated before the pan goes in
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato discs with the olive oil, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Toss until every inch of the potato is evenly coated.
- Arrange the slices in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Note: Leave at least a half inch of space between each round to avoid steaming
- Roast for 30 minutes until edges are deep amber and slightly shrunken.
- Remove the pan from the oven. You should smell a sweet, toasted aroma now.
- Sprinkle the minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme evenly across the top of the potatoes.
- Return the pan to the oven for an additional 10–15 minutes.
- Bake until the potatoes are tender enough to be pierced easily with a fork and the garlic is fragrant.
- Let them rest for 2 minutes before serving to let the juices settle.
