Baked Sweet Potato “Fries”
Author: Abel Fitness
Recipe type: Appetizers and Side Dishes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- Aluminum foil for pan
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- pepper to taste (I don’t use salt. If you don’t like pepper, try nutmeg and cinnamon instead)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 F. Half the sweet potatoes lengthwise. Place on flat side and slice 5-6 spears (thick and long strips) of sweet potato. Place them on the aluminum foil and toss with olive oil and your favorite flavorings. I use cayenne pepper, black pepper, garlic powder and onion powder)
- Spread them in one layer. It is important that they have space around them and aren’t piled up on each other. Bake for 15 minutes and turn with tongs or a spatula. Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve hot, room temperature, or cold.
