Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Homemade baked sweet potato fries served in a bowl

Baked Sweet Potato Fries are a healthy, crispy, and flavorful alternative to traditional fries. Made with simple seasonings and baked to perfection, they are a delicious side dish or snack.

Ingredients

– 2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 lbs total)

– 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil

– 1 tablespoon cornstarch

– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

– 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

– 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss sweet potato fries with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread fries in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until fries are crispy and golden brown.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • For crispier fries, soak the cut sweet potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before baking and pat dry thoroughly.
  • Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
  • Customize with other seasonings like rosemary, cumin, or chili powder.
  • These fries are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
