Stack sliced sweet potatoes for a roasted, cheesy snack filled with garlicky flavor.

These perfectly portioned sweet potatoes are a crowd-pleasing favorite! With no frying necessary, they easily bake up in muffin tins and include buttery ghee in every layer. Best of all, they’re ready to serve in under an hour!

Sweet potatoes make the ideal side dish for both sweet and savory recipes! They offer ample amounts of antioxidants and pack in plenty of fiber-rich nutrients. (1) For an extra crispy crunch, make sure to leave the peel intact when prepping.

To add a cheesy flavor without the dairy, you’ll be using nutritional yeast. You can use this Paleo ingredient to create cheese-like flavor in everything from dairy-free nacho sauce to pesto. You can find it in most grocery stores and it is readily available online.

To get started, thinly slice the sweet potatoes into ⅛-inch rounds. A mandolin works best, but a good chef’s knife and a steady hand will also get the job done. In a medium mixing bowl, toss the rounds with three tablespoons of melted ghee, half the thyme, and half the nutritional yeast. Stir in the garlic, salt, and pepper.

Next, grease a 12 cup muffin tin and layer 8-10 rounds in each tin. The muffin tins will conveniently keep the slices from sliding off as they roast. Roast for 30 minutes and then sprinkle the stacks with the remaining nutritional yeast and thyme. Return to the oven for 10 more minutes, then lift the stacks from the muffin tins using a rubber spatula. Serve immediately and enjoy!
