Notes
There is no need to peel the sweet potatoes but you can peel them before slicing if that's your preference.
Make sure each potato slice is evenly coated in oil before placing it on the baking sheet. This will prevent the slices from sticking to the pan.
When shopping for this recipe, pick sweet potatoes that are similar in size. That way the slices will be uniform and will roast at the same time.
