Description
A festive and savory-sweet appetizer featuring roasted sweet potato slices topped with creamy whipped feta, tart cranberry sauce, and crisp apple slices.
Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 large sweet potato, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/2 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
- 1 crisp apple (such as Honeycrisp), thinly sliced
- Fresh thyme leaves for garnish
- 1 baguette, sliced and toasted (optional, for extra crunch)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss sweet potato rounds with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
- In a food processor, combine feta, cream cheese, and honey. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and chill if desired.
- Assemble crostini: Spread a layer of whipped feta on each sweet potato round (or toasted baguette slice if using). Top with a spoonful of cranberry sauce and a slice of apple.
- Garnish with fresh thyme leaves and a drizzle of honey if desired. Serve immediately.
