Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb sweet potatoes scrubbed and cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • 1 18x13-inch rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Line a rimmed 18x13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Toss the sweet potato slices with the olive oil, salt, and pepper on the baking sheet.
  4. Arrange the slices in a single layer.
  5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until browned at the edges and tender when pierced with a fork.

Notes

For even browning, arrange the slices in a single layer without overlapping. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days; freezer storage is not recommended for the best texture. Avocado oil can replace olive oil if preferred.
