Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into fries, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the fries in a single layer on the baking sheet to ensure they aren’t overcrowded.
  5. Bake the fries for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through until golden-brown and crispy.
  6. If desired, add optional seasonings like cayenne or parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.
  7. Let the fries cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes to allow extra crispiness.
  8. Serve warm, either on their own or with a dipping sauce.
