Ingredients
Fries
- 2 lbs sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick sticks* (cut really long sticks in half)
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika (can use sweet or smoked)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Heat oven and prepare baking sheets: Set oven racks in upper and lower third of the oven and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease two 18 by 13-inch baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray, set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl whisk together cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder.
- Place sliced sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
- Toss sweet potatoes with olive oil then pour cornstarch mixture over sweet potatoes and toss to evenly coat.
- Divide sweet potatoes among the two baking sheets then spread out evenly.
- Bake in preheated oven 15 minutes, then remove from oven and turn fries.
- Return to oven (preferably on opposite rack the were on prior) and bake until until fries are golden brown in spots, about 10 minutes longer.
- Serve warm with a dipping sauce if desired. If you'd like you can also garnish with a little minced parsley for a pop of green color.
Notes
- *Cut the sweet potatoes as evenly as possible so they bake at the same rate.
- Tip: If you want fries a little crispier you can preheat the baking sheets in the oven for a few minutes and cut the fries a little bit thinner.
- I like to serve with ketchup or fry sauce. To make fry sauce mix 1/3 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup ketchup, 3/4 tsp apple cider vinegar, a few dashes cayenne pepper or paprika (sauces not included in nutrition estimate).
