Spiral Sweet Potato Bake is an elegant and flavorful side dish featuring thinly sliced sweet potatoes arranged in a spiral pattern and roasted with garlic, herbs, and butter until tender and crispy. Perfect for holidays or special dinners.

Ingredients

  • 3–4 medium sweet potatoes (uniform in size)
  • 2–3 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme or rosemary (or 1/2 tsp dried)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan (optional)
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a round or oval baking dish.
  2. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them thinly and evenly using a mandoline or sharp knife.
  3. In a bowl, toss the slices with olive oil or melted butter, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the sweet potato slices vertically in a spiral pattern in the baking dish.
  5. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  6. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20–25 minutes, until edges are crispy and centers are tender.
  7. Sprinkle with parmesan and parsley if using, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use a mandoline for even slices to ensure even cooking.
  • Covering with foil traps steam and keeps the potatoes tender.
  • Customize with cheese, maple syrup, or chili flakes as desired.
  • Best served fresh; reheat in the oven to maintain crispness.
  • Can be assembled ahead and baked just before serving.
