Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly cracked black pepper (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for crispy texture.
  2. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into thin fries, about 1/4 inch thick, ensuring uniformity for even cooking.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cut fries with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and optional pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they aren't overcrowded.
Cooking
  1. Bake the fries for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway, until they reach a golden brown color.
  2. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For the best results, cut sweet potatoes uniformly and avoid overcrowding the baking pan. Experiment with different spices for added flavor. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven or air fryer.
