Method
Peel the sweet1 potato and slice into 1.5 cm (½-inch) thick rounds.
Melt the butter2, then mix with honey, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt; brush generously over both sides of each slice.

Roast at 200°C (400°F) for 25–30 minutes, flipping once, until tender with caramelized edges; sprinkle with chopped nuts before serving.
Tips
- Why it works
- Slice sweet potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate and caramelize without burning.
- Substitutions
- Use maple syrup instead of honey (same amount) or pecans instead of walnuts (same weight).
- Common mistakes
- Overcrowd the tray. Slices steam instead of roasting; check edges for browning, not just color.
- Storing and reheating
- Eat fresh or within 2 days; reheat in a dry pan for 2 minutes until crispy again.
- Serve with
- Pair with roasted chicken thighs for dinner or serve alongside turkey at a holiday meal.
In short
- Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
