Crispy and flavorful Sweet Potato Fries baked to golden perfection, seasoned with paprika and garlic powder, perfect as a healthy snack or side dish served with your favorite dipping sauce.

Ingredients

Sweet Potato Fries

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Dipping Sauce

  • Dipping sauce of choice (ketchup, aioli, or ranch)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and help with easy cleanup.
  2. Season the fries: In a large bowl, toss the cut sweet potato fries with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to ensure each fry is evenly coated with seasoning and oil.
  3. Arrange fries on baking sheet: Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, taking care not to overcrowd them so they bake evenly and crisp up nicely.
  4. Bake the fries: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through cooking to promote even browning and crispiness.
  5. Serve: Remove from oven when fries are golden brown and crispy. Serve them warm alongside your preferred dipping sauce such as ketchup, aioli, or ranch.

Notes

  • Make sure the fries are cut evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Flipping halfway through baking helps achieve crispier fries on all sides.
  • You can experiment with different seasonings like cayenne pepper or smoked paprika for a different flavor profile.
  • Using parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
  • For extra crispiness, soak cut fries in cold water for 30 minutes before drying and seasoning to remove excess starch.
