Print Recipe

A delicious idea from our friends at CA Grown, perfect for gatherings both fancy and casual. Easy to make too.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1 large or two small orange- or yellow/white-fleshed sweetpotatoes, or a combination, cut into 1/4- to 1/3-inch thick rounds

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

4 ounces California blue cheese, such as Point Reyes

1 Fuji or Granny Smith apple, cut into matchsticks

3 sprigs fresh thyme

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.

    Slice the sweetpotato into think rounds, about 1/4 or 1/3 inch thick.

    Place the slices in a bowl and toss with the oil and salt to fully coat. Arrange rounds in a single

    layer on the prepared pan. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the rounds are golden and caramelized

    on the bottom. Allow to cool on the pan for 10 minutes.

    Transfer cooled rounds to a serving plate, and top with apple sticks and a bit of blue cheese.

    Top with fresh thyme leaves and enjoy.
