Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds sweet potatoes peeled
  • 5 tablespoons vegan butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs I used rosemary & thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 cup vegan parmesan I used Trader Joe's
  • flakey sea salt optional, for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly grease a cast iron skillet (or baking dish).
  • Use a mandoline or very sharp knife to slice the peeled potatoes.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a mixing bowl and add the melted butter, herbs, dry seasonings and vegan parmesan. Use your hands to evenly coat all of the potato slices.
  • Layer the potato slices in the cast iron skillet in a circular shape. Cover with foil and place in the oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and cook for an additional 20 minutes - turn the oven to broil for the last couple minutes for a crispier topping.
  • Top with more fresh herbs & sea salt (optional) and serve hot.

Notes

  • Try to get sweet potatoes that are similar in shape so that it will be easier to shape them in the skillet.
  • This is best served right away - I like reheating the leftovers in my air fryer to get it crispy again.
  • You can't really prep this ahead of time, because once you cut the potatoes they will start to brown.
