Sweet Potato Fries
SERVES 3 -4 , 1 large baking sheet
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes or 3 medium sweet potatoes
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
- sea salt
- paprika
Directions
1
Slice sweet potatoes into fry-sized strips (~ 1/2 inch square strips going down the full length of the potato).2
Toss them in olive oil and lay them out in a single layer on a baking sheet.3
Sprinkle with freshly ground sea salt and paprika to taste.4
Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 45 min, flipping them all over after 25 minute.5
OR broil on low (~ 400 degrees) for ~ 20-25 minute You shouldn't need to flip them, just watch that they don't get too brown.6
These taste best when they have just a touch of brown on them, but don't overdo them. They should not be crispy, just cooked and somewhat limp.

Delicious! Perfect as it, everyone loves them, including my 1 & 1/2 year old. Last time I made them I added a pinch of curry powder and paprika, it gave it a nice flavor.

Delish! I need to use up some sweet potatoes and I am happy that I chose this recipe. DH was skeptical but loved them. I followed the directions as directed but halved the recipe using 2 tablespoons olive oil. I did not peel my potatoes. Made for Fall PAC 2008. Thanks Mrs. T!

Delicious!! My family loved these quick, easy, and very healthy fries. I baked them, as written, and then stuck them under the broiler for a few minutes to crisp and brown. These were gone in a hurry!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper!! Made for Fall PAC 2008
