Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into thin waffle fry shapes using a waffle fry cutter or a knife.

Soak the Sweet Potatoes
Place the cut sweet potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and ensures crispiness.

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Dry and Season
After soaking, drain and pat the sweet potatoes dry. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes with olive oil, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.

Bake the Waffle Fries
Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.
