Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Using a waffle cutter, slice the sweet potatoes into waffle shapes. Aim for slices about 1/4 inch thick for optimal crispiness.
Place the sliced sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and toss to evenly coat the slices.
In a small bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, and cornstarch. Mix well.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the sweet potatoes. Toss until the fries are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes. Flip the fries halfway through baking to ensure even crispiness.
Remove from the oven when the fries are golden and crispy. Let them cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to further crisp up.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your low-sodium crispy sweet potato waffle fries!
