Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it’s hot enough to create crispy fries.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Peel them if desired, then cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, to resemble fries.

Seasoning and Coating

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, add the cut sweet potato fries, olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.

  2. 4

    Toss to Coat

    Using your hands or a spoon, toss the sweet potato fries until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.

Baking

  1. 5

    Arrange on Baking Sheet

    Spread the seasoned sweet potato fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not overcrowded to allow for even cooking.

  2. 6

    Bake

    Bake the fries in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve Hot

    Once done, remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve hot as a delicious side dish or snack.
