Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Scrub sweet potatoes clean; slice into ¼-inch rounds. In a large bowl, toss together sweet potatoes, oil, salt and pepper. Place in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place on middle rack in oven. Bake 8 minutes on each side, or until tender.
Using a mixer with whisk attachment, whip goat cheese, milk, rosemary, salt and pepper until smooth and fluffy. Spoon approximately ½ tsp goat cheese mixture onto each sweet potato round. Top evenly with pecans and cranberries. Drizzle with honey. Serve warm or at room temperature.
