Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Healthy Fact of the Day

Sweet potatoes are an excellent source of fiber, vitamins A and C, and potassium. Baking them into crispy fries with just a touch of olive oil and spices makes for a nutritious and delicious alternative to traditional French fries.

Ingredients

 

  • 3 large sweet potatoes, cut into 1/4-inch thick fries
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

 

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, toss the cut sweet potato fries with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them.

  4. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the fries with a spatula and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until they are crispy and lightly browned.

  5. Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool slightly.

  6. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Enjoy these crispy baked sweet potato fries as a tasty and guilt-free side dish or snack!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
