Sweet Potato Crostini
Sweet potato crostinis make a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional bread-based crostinis, combining layers of sweet and savory flavors in each bite. Perfect as an appetizer or a holiday snack, these crostinis showcase creamy goat cheese, crispy bacon, fragrant rosemary, a drizzle of honey, and a pop of tart cranberry.
Ingredients
Sweet Potatoes: 1 large, cut into ¼-inch thick rounds
Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
Salt and Pepper: to taste
Goat Cheese: 4 ounces, softened
Bacon: 3 slices
Fresh Rosemary: 1 teaspoon, finely chopped
Honey: 2 tablespoons, for drizzling
Dried Cranberries: ¼ cup, chopped
Instructions
Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the sweet potato rounds on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through until they’re tender and slightly caramelized.
Assemble the Crostinis: Once the sweet potatoes are out of the oven and have cooled slightly, spread a layer of goat cheese on each slice. Top with crumbled bacon and sprinkle with fresh rosemary.
Finish with Toppings: Drizzle each crostini with honey and garnish with chopped dried cranberries.
Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the crostinis on a platter and serve warm or at room temperature.
