Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and dry sweet potatoes, then slice lengthwise into ¼–½ inch thick pieces. 2. Brush slices lightly with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. 3. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and lightly golden at the edges. 4.

Notes
• Slice potatoes evenly to ensure consistent cooking. • Roast extra slices ahead and reheat for quick breakfasts during the week. • Season potato slices with spices like paprika, garlic powder, or cumin for added flavor. • For extra crispness, broil the slices for the last 2–3 minutes.
