Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes
Crispy, golden Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potatoes, seasoned with herbs, garlic, and vegan parmesan—flavorful, satisfying, and the ultimate plant-powered comfort side.
Ingredients
- 3 large sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 3 tablespoons vegan parmesan cheese store-bought or homemade
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a mixing bowl, toss sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Spread evenly on the baking sheet. Avoid crowding—every cube deserves its moment to crisp.
- Roast for 25 minutes, flip them, then sprinkle vegan parmesan. Roast another 10 minutes until golden and crisp.
- Garnish with parsley, serve warm, and try not to eat them straight off the tray.
