These easy sweet potato appetizers are just 55 calories and amazing hot or cold... so you can make them ahead of time if you like. You only need a handful of ingredients (4 if you don't count salt and pepper) and these appetizers are great for holidays and gatherings of all kinds. Special Tip: Though I find that these are best with brie cheese, gruyere and goat cheese are also great if you don't like brie.
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cut the sweet potatoes into 1/4 inch rounds (about 8 rounds per sweet potato) and place on the baking sheets in a single layer as you work.
Spray the sweet potatoes with olive oil.
Bake the sweet potato rounds in the oven for 10 minutes. Flip and bake an additional 10 minutes. (20 minutes total)
Meanwhile, slice the brie in half, then cut those halves in half (so you have 4 large wedges). Cut each of the 4 wedges into 6 slices (this will give you 24 small pieces of brie).
Remove the potato bites from the oven and immediately add a slice of brie to each so it melts (you can also add back to the hot oven for 2-3 minutes if you are in a rush.)
Top each with cranberries, salt and pepper and if you like, a little thyme and walnuts.
Serve hot, cold, room temperature. These are great anyway you serve them!
