Ingredients
  

2 large sweet potatoes

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust or omit for heat preference)

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Fresh rosemary or thyme for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: To achieve that perfect level of crispiness, begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the sweet potatoes: Thoroughly wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Once prepped, slice them into rounds about 1/4-inch thick to ensure even cooking throughout.

      Season the sweet potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, bring together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, sea salt, and black pepper. Add the sweet potato rounds to the bowl, and toss gently until every piece is beautifully coated with the seasoning mix.

        Arrange on a baking sheet: For easy clean-up, line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Lay the seasoned sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the sheet, making sure they do not overlap. This ensures each piece can roast evenly.

          Roast the sweet potatoes: Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes. To achieve crispiness and a golden allure, flip the sweet potato rounds halfway through the cooking time.

            Check for doneness: Your bliss bites should be tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. If they need a little more crunch, feel free to broil them on high for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping a close watch to avoid burning.

              Garnish and serve: Remove the sweet potato bites from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. For a fresh aromatic finish, sprinkle some chopped rosemary or thyme over the top before serving.

                Enjoy! Serve these delightful bites warm, perfect as a side dish, snack, or appetizer.
