These crispy roasted sweet potato rounds are an easy side dish or snack that is full of flavor. They are golden and caramelized on the outside, tender in the middle, and delicious with a creamy dipping sauce.
Ingredients
2 large sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
For the Dip
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
A pinch of salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, then slice them into rounds about 1/2 inch thick.
Place the slices in a large bowl. Add olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Toss well until every slice is evenly coated.
Arrange the sweet potato rounds in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 20 minutes, then flip each slice and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until golden brown and crispy around the edges.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, salt, and lemon juice until smooth.
Serve the sweet potato rounds warm with the creamy dip on the side.
Tips
Do not overcrowd the baking sheet. Giving the slices enough space helps them become crispier.
For extra caramelization, broil them for 1 to 2 minutes at the end, watching carefully so they do not burn.
These make a delicious snack, appetizer, or easy side dish for almost any meal.
