Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large sweet potatoes (about 2.5–3 lbs. or 1.3kg)
- 1–2 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 Tablespoons oil, such as avocado, sunflower, coconut, grapeseed, or olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- optional seasoning: cayenne, chili powder, garlic powder, or paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into thin sticks about 1/4-inch wide, drying them thoroughly with paper towels.
- In a large bowl or zip-top bag, toss the sweet potatoes with cornstarch until evenly coated, then strain off any excess cornstarch.
- Return the sweet potatoes to the bowl, toss with oil, salt, and any optional seasonings.
- Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they are not crowded.
- Bake for 15 minutes, flip the fries, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until crispy.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, or leave them in the oven to cool for extra crispiness.
Notes
Make sure to cut the fries evenly for uniform cooking.
