Coated in olive oil, garlic powder, and paprika, they’re baked to golden perfection. Whether you’re enjoying them as a snack or pairing them with your favorite meal, these fries are a healthier alternative to traditional fries and are sure to satisfy your cravings.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled (optional) and cut into fries

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon paprika (smoked paprika is optional for extra flavor)

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • Optional: 1 tablespoon cornstarch for extra crispiness

Instructions

  • Prep the Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Toss with Cornstarch (Optional): If using, toss sweet potato fries in cornstarch to coat them evenly.

  • Season & Oil: Drizzle the fries with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss them well to ensure they are evenly coated.

  • Spread & Bake: Spread the fries in a single layer on the baking sheet without overlapping. Bake for 15 minutes.

  • Flip & Crisp: Flip the fries and bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy.

  • Serve Hot: Remove the fries from the oven and enjoy them immediately with your favorite dipping sauce!

Notes

  • If you want extra crispiness, make sure to use cornstarch in the coating.

  • Smoked paprika can add a delightful smoky flavor to your fries, but regular paprika works just fine too.

  • For a more flavorful experience, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to spice things up.

  • Do not overcrowd the fries on the baking sheet. Spacing them out allows them to bake evenly and crisp up perfectly.
