Very tasty. They weren't crispy but, then again, I didn't expect them to be. I'm only giving it 4 stars because of the skin. I will definitely make this recipe again but with one change......I will peel the skin next time.We found it to be 'chewy'.....for lack of a better word. Thanks for sharing.

    i love these sweet potato fries-- i ate them all the time this summer! i'm the only one in my family who loves sweet potatoes, so i changed the recipe to fit one person: i used 1 large sweet potato, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp chili powder and 1/4 tsp onion powder. for a little less mess i combined the spices in a large ziplock baggie. after cutting the sweet potato into fries i sprayed them with olive-oil flavored cooking spray, placed them in the baggie and shook to coat. then i baked them in a 475 deg oven for 12 minutes on each side-- they turned out delicious every time! thank you thank you thank you so much!

    These had a very nice taste, but the texture was much more like potato wedges, than fries. I will probably make them again - knowing that they don't pack a fry-like crunch.

    These were very good. I will probably double the salt in the future, and I only used 2 t of the oil. This is definitely a yummy/quick way to serve up one of my favorite veggies! Thanks for posting.

    I really enjoyed the flavor. It was different but good! The fries did not crisp up at all. They got really soggy, then I thought I would try to cook them longer but I burnt the edges (my fault not the recipe). I think next time I will just cook them on the stove as more of a scallop type potato. I really did love the flavor and will make again. Thanks for the recipe!
