Ingredients
- 2 lbs baby potatoes, halved
- 6 slices bacon, chopped
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes onto a lined baking sheet in a single layer.
- Scatter the chopped bacon evenly over the potatoes.

- Sprinkle fresh thyme and Parmesan cheese (if using) over the potatoes and return to the oven for another 5 minutes.

Notes
For extra crispiness, soak the potatoes in water before roasting. Use turkey bacon for a leaner option. Maple syrup works as a great substitute for honey.
