Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C) and position the rack in the upper third of the oven for that perfect crisp.

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, grab a baking sheet and give it a light greasing to keep those delicious sweet potato wedges from sticking.

3. Step 3

   Next, peel your sweet potatoes and slice them into delightful wedges, aiming for about 1x3 inches in size—this shape is perfect for achieving that ideal balance of tenderness and crunch.

4. Step 4

   In a large mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with soybean oil, ensuring each piece is lightly coated for maximum flavor.

5. Step 5

   Now, it’s time to sprinkle on some seasoning magic! Add sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika, making sure every wedge gets a fair share of those tasty spices.

6. Step 6

   Once seasoned, spread the wedges out in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet, giving them a little space to breathe so they can roast beautifully.

7. Step 7

   Slide the baking sheet into your preheated oven and let the sweet potatoes bake for 18 to 24 minutes.

8. Step 8

   Remember to turn them occasionally to ensure they cook evenly and develop that lovely golden brown color.

9. Step 9

   When they’re tender and perfectly crisp, take them out and let them cool for about 5 minutes—this will help them firm up just a bit.

    Now, you’re ready to serve these irresistible sweet potato fries and enjoy every delicious bite!.
