Equipment

• Food processor or blender

• Mixing spoon

• Serving platter

Pro Tips

1. Cut Even Cubes: Dice your sweet potatoes into uniform pieces to ensure they roast evenly.

2. Roast Until Caramelized: Let the edges brown slightly—caramelization = better flavor.

3. Use Cold Feta: Cold feta whips thicker and creamier than room-temp.

4. Don’t Over-Blend: Blend feta just until smooth to avoid it becoming too loose.

5. Finish With Heat: Add the Hot Honey right before serving to preserve its bold spice and glossy finish.

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Dice the sweet potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Spread them on the baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.

3. Roast for 30 minutes, stirring once halfway, until tender and lightly caramelized.

4. Meanwhile, add feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, black pepper, and lemon juice to a food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, 20–30 seconds.

5. Spoon the whipped feta onto a platter and spread gently. Top with roasted sweet potatoes.

6. Drizzle generously with Honey House Hot Honey and garnish with cilantro.

7. Serve with pita chips, warm naan, or tucked inside a wrap.

Storage Tips

• Store leftover roasted sweet potatoes in an airtight container for 3–4 days.

• Keep whipped feta refrigerated in a sealed container for up to 5 days.

• To serve again, gently warm the sweet potatoes and spoon them over chilled or room-temperature feta.

• Drizzle fresh Hot Honey after reheating for best flavor.
