Thanksgiving is a only a few days away. Are you ready. Have you planned your menu yet? Are you hosting? Or are you going to be a guest? No matter what your plans are. These sweet potato crostini would be a great addition to your holiday party.

They’re so simple. And they’re loaded with flavor, and they take twenty minutes to put together. The brie and the jalapeños, and the honey and the herbs are a match made in heaven. These flavors are meant to be together.

This sweet potato crostini recipe is sponsored by Rio Luna Organic Peppers. I am proud to partner with Rio Luna because I love their mission. Rio Luna peppers are certified organic, non-GMO, fat and cholesterol-free, low calorie and kosher.

How to make sweet potato crostini.

First you roast the sweet potato rounds into little crostini bites. And then you top those bites with the perfect combination of cheese, sweet, a little bit of tangy heat and herbs. It’s the perfect one bite. 

The crostini can be easy to burn, so make sure you slice the rounds evenly and watch them closely. Slicing the brie thinly is also a good tip because you want the cheese to be about the same thickness of the crostini. They’re best served right away or at room temperature. 

These sweet potato crostini with brie, honey and jalapenos make a wonderful fall or holiday appetizer. A naturally gluten-free, and vegetarian bite. #sweetpotatocrostini #holidayappetizer #briecrostini
