How to Make Sweet Potato Bites
Here’s what you’ll need to make these-

- 2-3 sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch slices
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 3-4 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 4 oz goat cheese
- 2 tbsp milk
- Notable Chardonnay to pair with these delicious little bites 😉

To make them, preheat your oven to 425 degrees and spray a large rimmed cookie sheet with cooking spray. In a large bowl, toss potato slices in olive oil and cinnamon to coat. Then, lay them down in a single layer. Pop them into the oven and bake for 8 minutes. Take them out, flip them all, and put them back into the oven for another 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whip the goat cheese and milk in a medium bowl until fluffy.

Once the potato slices are baked, spread about a tsp of the goat cheese mixture onto each one. Top with toasted, chopped pecans, and then drizzle with maple syrup. Enjoy!
