Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into even-sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick and 3-4 inches long.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the cut sweet potatoes into the bowl and toss well until all pieces are thoroughly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned sweet potato fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove from the oven and flip the fries to ensure even browning.
Return the fries to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the fries are crispy and golden brown.
Once cooked, remove the fries from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve as a delicious side dish or a healthy snack option, perfect for anyone following the Whole30 program.
