Unfried Sweet Potato Fries

Recipe #30163 | 35 min | 5 min prep | add private note

These are my favorite! Anytime I want fries I make these. I sometimes eat them with a fat free turkey hot dog and it takes me back to my childhood. I think these are better then the ones you make with regular baking potatoes. Try them and tell me what you think

SERVES 1 -2 , 1 -2 servings sweet potato fries (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. 2
    Scrub sweet potato and remove any bad spots.
  3. 3
    Cut the sweet potato up into thin matchsticks (as for fries).
  4. 4
    Leave the skin on.
  5. 5
    Place on large cookie sheet with aluminum foil (so you don't have a messy pan to clean) coated lightly with cooking spray.
  6. 6
    Spray sweet potatoes with cooking spray and season with the salt and pepper.
  7. 7
    Cook about 20 minutes and then crank oven up to about 380 degrees and bake until crispy (about 10 additional minutes).
  8. 8
    If you overloaded the pan (as I always do) not all of them get real crispy, but they are good either way.
  9. 9
    Serve with ketchup on the side.

I sprinkled mine with cinnamon sugar and dipped them in apple butter. They were very tasty !

    Shannon, I love you! I love sweet potatoes and eating healthy, and I was so excited to have a heaping helping of sweet potato fries next to my black bean burger (Healthy Low-Fat Black Bean Veggie Burgers) for lunch. A delicious and healthy spin on a burger and fries. About half of the fries turned out crispy, and the other half turned out a bit softer, which I thought was delightful. I didn't use ketchup because no extra flavor was required. I will be making these regularly from now on.

    Great, healthy recipe! I usuallly bake my sweet potatoes in small chunks tossed in olive oil. This was a nice change and with less calories. Loved the foil tip to save on clean-up time! One additonal thing I did was sprinkle the "fries" with kosher salt rather than regular table salt. Thanks Shannon! Reviewed for 2008 All New Zaar Cookbooks Tag.

    This was great - super easy and so tasty! I followed the directions exactly. The only thing I would do differently next time is pay closer attention in the last 10 minutes of the cooking. My matchsticks were so thing that the ends burnt - although they still tasted good!
