Ingredients

Scale

Sweet Potato Rounds

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Toppings

  • 8 oz Brie cheese, sliced or crumbled
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy.
  2. Prepare Sweet Potato Rounds: Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with olive oil evenly, then season with salt and black pepper for flavor.
  3. Bake Sweet Potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the sweet potato rounds for 15-18 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced and have a light golden-brown color.
  4. Add Toppings: Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Top each sweet potato round with a slice or crumble of Brie cheese, add a few cranberries on top, then sprinkle with chopped pecans.
  5. Finish Baking: Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 5-7 minutes. This will melt the Brie cheese and soften the cranberries slightly, bringing all the flavors together.
  6. Serve Warm: Remove from the oven and serve the Sweet Potato Rounds with Brie, Cranberry & Pecans warm. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can use fresh or frozen cranberries; if frozen, no need to thaw before using.
  • For extra flavor, drizzle a small amount of honey or balsamic glaze over the rounds before serving.
  • Substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds if preferred.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the sweet potatoes evenly for uniform cooking.
