Want to substitute your French fries with something else? Try sweet potato fries! They are healthier and just as delicious (or maybe even more!).

Ingredients:

  • 2-3 medium sized sweet potatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • Garlic powder to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil, to prevent the fries from sticking to the pan.

Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut into half and then slice each half into small French-fry-like pieces.

Add some olive oil to the baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place the sliced sweet potatoes on top, evenly spread out. Sprinkle with cornstarch, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, and salt & pepper.

Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the fries so that all sides are evenly cooked. Bake for another 10-15 more minutes, or until they reach your desired amount of crispness.
