Ingredients

  • 4 medium sized sweet potatoes sliced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut off rounded ends of the ends of the potatoes then slice in 1/4 inch wide strips.
  3. In a large bowl or gallon sized zip to page combine the sliced sweet potatoes olive oil, sweet paprika, salt and pepper. Toss until everything is coated in the mixture.
  4. Spread the sliced potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes. Flip the fries and bake for an additional 25 minutes or until fries are browned and crispy on the outside. (See notes below.)

Recipe Notes

  1. You do not have to peel the sweet potatoes. If you prefer you can slice the the potatoes with the skin intact.
  2. You may need to use two sheet pans for the fries so there is not overlapping.
  3. Cut off the rounded ends of the potato before slicing. If the ends of the fries are too thin they will usually brown and possibly burn quickly. Keeping the sweet potato slices a fairly consistent thickness will help ensure even cooking
  4. Nutritional information is estimated. Amounts will vary based on ingredient choices and serving sizes.
