These Caramelized Sweet Potatoes with Maple, Feta & Crunchy Walnuts are a stunning balance of sweet, savory, creamy, and crisp. Roasted until tender with deeply caramelized edges, the sweet potatoes are glazed in pure maple syrup and warm spices, then finished with tangy feta and toasted walnuts for contrast and texture.
This dish feels both comforting and elegant, making it just as suitable for a cozy weeknight dinner as it is for a holiday table. The natural sweetness of the potatoes intensifies in the oven, while cinnamon and nutmeg add subtle warmth without overpowering. Finished with fresh parsley, every bite is vibrant, balanced, and deeply satisfying.
