Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound sweet potatoes (1 very large potato or 2 medium-large potatoes), peeled and sliced about ⅓-inch thick
  • 1.5 tablespoons pure maple syrup divided, plus additional for drizzling
  • to taste Salt
  • 1/4 cup pecans finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons pecans finely chopped
  • 8 wedges Laughing Cow® Creamy Swiss Light Cheese

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Frying Pan
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Peeler
  • Chef's Knife
  • Wooden Spoon

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the sliced sweet potatoes and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, reserving the rest for later. Rub the syrup into the potatoes thoroughly until they're well-coated.
  3. Place the sweet potatoes onto the prepared pan. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt.
  4. In a small baking dish, toss together the chopped pecans and the remaining ½ tablespoon of maple syrup, making sure to evenly coat them.
  5. Place both the potatoes and the pecans into the oven and cook for 10 minutes. Check on the pecans after 10 minutes to make sure they don't burn!
  6. After 10 minutes, flip the potatoes and cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until they are fork-tender and the outsides are golden.
  7. While the pecans and sweet potatoes cook, unwrap the wedges of Laughing Cow® Creamy Swiss Light Cheese and place them into a medium bowl. Using an electric hand mixer, beat the cheese until smooth.
  8. Spoon the whipped cheese on the center of each roasted sweet potato slice, and sprinkle on the toasted pecans.
  9. Drizzle each slice with additional maple syrup for that finishing touch. Serve immediately!
