This easy recipe transforms humble yams into golden, crunchy perfection with just a handful of pantry staples like olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and sea salt. Oven-baked to ensure a healthier twist, these yam fries deliver irresistible crispiness without extra carbs or grease. Ready in just under 45 minutes, they make an ideal side dish, snack, or party appetizer. Pair them with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them straight out of the oven for a wholesome bite bursting with bold spices.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Peel the yams and cut them into thin, uniform slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced yams with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss well to ensure each piece is evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned yam slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. It's important not to overlap the slices to achieve maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, remove the baking sheet and carefully flip each slice over to ensure even cooking.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the yams are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked to your desired level of crispiness, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet. This will help them firm up further before serving.
Serve immediately while warm as a delicious and keto-friendly side dish or snack.
