Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into evenly sized wedges, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and ground black pepper.
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the sweet potato wedges and toss them to coat evenly.
Add the seasoned olive oil mixture to the bowl and toss again until the wedges are fully coated.
Spread the sweet potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This will help them crisp up properly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through to ensure even browning.
Once the wedges are golden brown and crisp on the edges, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Serve warm, garnished with additional rosemary if desired, and enjoy!
