With a mix of melty butter, garlic, and a sprinkle of parmesan, these potatoes turn into a flavor-packed side or snack that’ll make you wonder why you didn’t try this sooner.
1. Preheat & Prep
Set your oven to broil, then chop your sweet potatoes into 1 ½ inch slices.
2. Boil to Tender
Place the slices into a pot of salted water, and boil for 20 minutes, or until they’re easily pierced with a fork.
3. Smash & Arrange
Transfer the boiled potatoes onto a baking sheet, then gently press down on each piece to flatten (think rustic, not perfect!).
4. Garlic Butter Magic
In a bowl, mix the melted butter with crushed garlic and parsley. Pour this over the smashed potatoes, getting every nook and cranny.
5. Season & Broil
Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then broil for 15 minutes, or until edges start to get golden and crispy.
6. Cheesy Finish
Sprinkle parmesan over the potatoes and broil for an additional 5 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Garnish & Serve
Top with fresh parsley, serve warm, and watch them disappear!
