Crispy Baked Sweet Potatoes

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: ~30 minutes | Serves 4 

Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, washed and scrubbed
  • 1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Few pinches of coarse or fine sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, and rub a bit of olive oil onto the parchment paper.
  3. Wash and scrub sweet potatoes, and cut them into 1" rounds using a sharp chefs knife.
  4. Generously rub both sides of each sweet potato round with olive oil and then sprinkle with sea salt.
  5. Place the sweet potatoes cut-side down on the parchment paper. Sprinkle tops of sweet potatoes with additional salt.
  6. Roast them in the pre-heated oven for about 25-30 minutes (roasting times can vary, as sweet potatoes vary in size). They're finished when you can easily squeeze them, and the skins will dent when poked with a finger, also the skin should easily pull away from the potato.
  7. Slather each sweet potato with some butter and additional sea salt to taste. Enjoy warm!
