Sticky Tahini Sweet Potatoes (With Chili Crunch)

August 3, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you’ve never considered tahini for your potatoes, prepare to have your culinary world rocked. Sticky Tahini Sweet Potatoes are here to flip the script on your typical side dish game—offering crispy, tender potatoes cloaked in a luscious, nutty tahini glaze that’s both addictive and guilt-free. Yes, you heard right: health-conscious meets downright crave-worthy.

Combining the two is a match made in flavor heaven. The tahini adds a rich, slightly earthy creaminess with a hint of nuttiness that coats the sweet potatoes perfectly, turning every bite into a sticky, savory sensation…
