  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 38 minute

Ingredients

– 2 large sweet potatoes
– 3 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional for a sweet twist)
– Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your own Crispy Oven Baked Sweet Potato Fries:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into evenly-sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick. This helps them cook uniformly.
3. Season the Fries: In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato fries with the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded. This allows them to crisp up nicely.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through to ensure even cooking.
6. Check for Crispiness: After the specified time, check for desired crispiness. If they need more time, feel free to leave them in for an additional 5 minutes.
7. Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

These steps will guide you in achieving the perfect crispy texture and delectable flavor for your fries.
