Oven Baked Sweet Potato Fries
These Oven Baked Sweet Potato Fries are delicious!
I fell in love with Sweet Potato Fries when I was in a restaurant and ordered the “wrong” kinda fries. At first, I wanted to return them, but I was so hungry that I decided to eat them and wait for the rest of the menu. Well, they were delicious, and I ordered another portion!
After that day, I discovered a whole sweet potato world and decided to make them at home. Since I didn’t want to fry them, I popped them into the oven and let the heat do the work. Of course, I seasoned my fries and they turned out perfectly! Ever since that day, I’ve been making this recipe, it’s easy, the fries are crispy, and the seasoning works so well the sweetness of the potato. Try it out yourself and serve them as a side-dish or just treat yourself with these golden sticks!
>>Into the Sweet Potato madness? Then make these Sweet Potato Chickpea Burgers! They are super flavourful, crispy on the outside and soft in the inside. Serve them on a bun with lettuce, grilled Halloumi slices and a Piccalli mayo and enjoy!
