Crispy Smashed Sweet Potatoes With Parm
  1. Preheat oven to 450°F with racks in top and lower third positions.

  2. Whisk 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon thyme, the grated garlic and 1 teaspoon nutmeg in a large bowl.

  3. Add sweet potato rounds and toss to coat.

  4. Divide between 2 large rimmed baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart.

  5. Roast, rotating the pans between top and bottom racks and flipping the sweet potatoes halfway through, until tender, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  6. Brush the baking sheets with the remaining 1½ teaspoons oil.

  7. Sprinkle ½ cup Parmesan in an even layer across the pans.

  8. Arrange the sweet potatoes on top of the cheese.

  9. Cover with parchment paper; use the bottom of a small bowl to press each round to ¼-inch thickness.

  10. Remove the parchment and sprinkle the sweet potatoes with the remaining ½ cup Parmesan.

  11. Roast, rotating the pans top to bottom halfway through, until browned and crisp, about 12 minutes.

  12. Let stand for 2 minutes.

  13. Use a thin spatula to transfer to a platter.

  14. Let rest for another 2 to 3 minutes.

  15. Garnish with thyme and/or flaky salt, if desired.
