Ingredients
  

Fries
  • 2 large sweet potatoes peeled and cut into fries
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for coating
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon paprika optional, for flavor
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder optional, for flavor

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into fry shapes, about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. In a mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with olive oil, salt, paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
Baking
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Spread the fries in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
Serving

  2. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For extra crispiness, soak the cut sweet potatoes in water for 30 minutes before baking, then dry thoroughly.
