Ingredients
  

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Salt and pepper to taste

½ cup feta cheese, crumbled

¼ cup honey

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: ¼ cup chopped walnuts or pecans for crunch

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Toss until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.

      Bake: Spread the sweet potato mixture on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.

        Add Feta: Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to melt the feta slightly.

          Drizzle with Honey: Once done, remove the sweet potato bites from the oven and drizzle with honey while they are still hot. If using nuts, sprinkle the chopped walnuts or pecans over the top for an added crunch.

            Garnish & Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley, plate them, and serve warm as an appetizer or side dish. Enjoy your delightful bites!
