These crostini were a bit too crispy for my taste, but the flavor was great. I think I would bake them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These crostini were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some herbs or spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I really enjoyed these crostini. The goat cheese and honey balance out the sweetness of the potatoes perfectly.

These crostini were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less honey next time.

I was skeptical about using sweet potatoes for crostini, but I'm so glad I tried it. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the flavors were amazing.
