Ingredients

Sweet Potatoes

  • 4 large sweet potatoes (about 2.5-3 lbs or 1.3kg)
  • 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 Tablespoons oil (such as avocado, sunflower, coconut, grapeseed, or olive oil)
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon seasoning (optional) (cayenne, chili powder, garlic powder, or paprika)

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Line baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats.
  • Wash, peel, and cut sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch sticks. Pat dry with paper towels.
  • Toss sweet potato sticks with cornstarch, then shake off excess. Mix with oil, salt, and optional seasonings.
  • Arrange fries in a single layer on baking sheets, leaving space between them.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, flip fries, then bake for another 10-15 minutes until crispy. Let sit in oven off for 20-30 minutes for extra crispiness.

Notes

For extra crispiness, let the fries sit in the turned-off oven for 20-30 minutes after baking.
