Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes Provides structure and natural sweetness; try butternut squash for a similar texture.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Essential for crispy edges; avocado oil makes a great substitute.
  • salt Elevates flavor; adjust to your taste preference.
  • pepper Elevates flavor; adjust to your taste preference.
For the Topping
  • 8 ounces brie cheese Adds rich creaminess that melts beautifully; camembert can also be used for a different flavor.
  • 1 cup dried cranberries Offers tartness and beautiful color contrast; fresh cranberries may require cooking.
