Ingredients
Scale
Sweet Potato Bites
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Parmesan Herb Butter
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is hot enough for crisping the sweet potato cubes.
- Toss Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper, making sure each cube is evenly coated.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned sweet potato cubes evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer to allow even roasting and crisping.
- Bake Sweet Potatoes: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning the cubes halfway through to ensure they become crispy on all sides.
- Prepare Herb Butter Mixture: While the potatoes bake, mix melted butter, grated parmesan, dried thyme, and dried rosemary in a small bowl until well combined.
- Toss with Herb Butter: Once the sweet potato bites are baked and crispy, transfer them to a large bowl and toss thoroughly with the parmesan herb butter mixture to coat evenly.
- Serve Warm: Serve the crispy parmesan herb sweet potato bites immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use sweet potatoes of similar size for even cooking.
- Flipping the potatoes halfway ensures a crispy texture on all sides.
- For extra crispiness, use a wire rack on the baking sheet.
- You can substitute fresh herbs for dried if available.
- These bites are best enjoyed immediately but can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes.
