Oven-Baked Sweet Potato Fries

November 19, 2013 by Becky 14 Comments

Oven-Baked Sweet Potato Fries

I have a recipe that will change up the side dish at your next meal! Sweet Potato Fries! Sweet Potatoes are a good source of beta-carotene, and many other vitamins and minerals. They are a complex carbohydrate and they’re full of fiber.  But the best part is…they are delicious!

Have you ever made oven-baked fries?  If you have never made Sweet Potato Fries before, what are you waiting for?  They are really easy!  Kids love them and they are good for them.

Ingredients

  • 2-3 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 T. cornstarch
  • 2 T. olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary (or more, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Cut off the pointed ends of the sweet potatoes.
  2. Peel the potatoes using a vegetable peeler and slice them lengthwise into 1/2" sections. Then cut them into even pieces, about 1/2" thick and about 3 -4" long.
  3. Put them in a bowl and sprinkle the fries with the cornstarch. Toss them around to coat them evenly.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
  5. Spread the fries out in a single layer onto a baking sheet that has been drizzled with olive oil. Sprinkle lightlywith salt and pepper and dried rosemary (to taste.)
  6. Space them evenly so that they are not touching each other. This way, they will get crispy. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes. Using a metal spatula, carefully turn the fries over. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until slightly browned and crispy!

Spread the fries out in a single layer onto a baking sheet that has been drizzled with olive oil.  Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper and a little bit of dried rosemary (to taste.)

Space them evenly so that they are not touching each other.  This way, they will get crispy. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes.  Using a metal spatula, carefully turn the fries over.  Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until slightly browned and crispy!

These are really good with any kind of meat.  I especially love these with pork.

    These looks really good, and a good way to incorporate sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    We have a local burger joint that makes these with sea salt and rosemary and they are AMAZING. With this recipe, I can make them at home. You officially just made my day! 🙂

    Why cornstarch? Does it help make them crisp?

    I like to pre prepare or make meals on Sunday… Can I cut these up before hand so I can toss in oven when I get home. If so should I put them in water over night?
