Ingredients
- 2 lb. sweet potatoes medium-sized
- 1 Tbsp. cornstarch or tapioca starch
- 1 tsp. salt to taste
- 2 Tbsp. oil avocado or olive
- ¼-½ tsp. black pepper optional
- fresh parsley or cilantro finely chopped, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
Cutting the Potatoes:
- Peel the skin from the potatoes using a vegetable peeler.
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise.
- Place one of the halves flat-side down on the cutting board and make cuts about ¼-inch apart.
- Place these pieces flat-side down and finish cutting potatoes into long, thin strips about ¼-½ inch in thickness. Repeat with remaining sweet potatoes.
Baking the Fries:
- Add potato slices to a large baking sheet lined with a piece of parchment paper.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of starch over all of the potatoes. Toss until well coated.
- Drizzle oil all over the potatoes and sprinkle with salt. Toss to combine.
- Lay potato fries out in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap. Bake sweet potato fries in preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Flip all fries over and return to oven for an additional 12-15 minutes. You’ll know the fries are done baking when the edges begin to brown and crisp up.
- Serve sweet potato fries with a Homemade Remoulade Sauce or Sriracha Mayo and enjoy!
Notes
- To Prep-Ahead: Baked sweet potato fries are best when served immediately. The longer they sit out and cool to room temperature the soggier they will get.
- To Store: Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- To Freeze: Pre-freeze in a single layer for 1-2 hours, then transfer to a freezer-safe airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months.
- To Reheat: Return the fries to a baking sheet and reheat in the oven, or place in an air-fryer and bake at 325°F for 5-6 minutes. Avoid microwaving as it will make leftover fries extremely mushy.
