Ingredients

  • 2 long sweet potatoes
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400℉/204℃.
  • Spray muffin tin with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Peel and thinly slice sweet potatoes.
  • Wash and dry.
  • In a large bowl, combine sweet potatoes, garlic, thyme, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Mix to coat.
  • Stack sweet potatoes in prepared muffin tins.
  • Bake for 35 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.

Notes

  • The skinnier the sweet potato, the better this recipe will be! Try and use ones that are close in size, as it will really help when stacking.
  • Make sure to thoroughly wash and dry the sweet potato slices!
  • Try and get the potatoes as thin as you can, but not shaved so thin that the potatoes are see-through. We used a mandoline to achieve inch thick slices.
  • When mixing everything together, It's best to use your hands! A lot of the slices will stick together and you will need to pull them apart to make sure each slice gets thoroughly coated with oil, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Stack the potatoes slightly higher than the muffin tin, as they will shrink when cooking.
  • You can use a cake tester or toothpick to determine if these sweet potato stacks are cooked through! If the tester glides through the middle easily without any resistance, the potatoes are done.
