Spicy Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Ingredients

  • 1-2 decent-sized sweet potatoes (look for some that are more long and narrow instead of short and squat)
  • 1 generous glug of olive oil
  • 1 tsp each:
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Cinnamon
  • Chipotle powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  2. Cut the sweet potatoes into 1/2 sticks, as long or short as you’d like them.
  3. Put the cut sweet potatoes into a bowl, drizzle the oil over the top, then add the spices.
  4. Toss or stir to coat, trying to get them all as evenly spiced as possible.
  5. Spread the fries evenly onto a baking sheet, trying to keep them in a single layer.
  6. Bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until tender, turning them once about halfway through.

    Secret: I can’t get into sweet potato fries. I guess I just want the starchy, non-healthy indulgence that is Russet french fries. I must be the only person in America who has so far resisted the sweet potato fry, because I see them all over the place, but . . . nope. Can’t do it.

      I like to mix things up every once in a while, but we do make them with regular potatoes too. We don’t necessarily make them because they’re healthier, I just like the flavor possibilities 🙂
