Some Notes About the Recipe

  • Sweet Potatoes: Choose firm, medium-sized sweet potatoes with smooth skin. Peel and cut them into uniform sticks to ensure even cooking.
  • Seasoning: Experiment with different seasonings to find your favorite combination. Popular options include paprika, garlic powder, cinnamon, or even a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat.
  • Baking Tips: To achieve maximum crispiness, toss the sweet potato sticks in a light coating of cornstarch before adding oil and seasonings. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet, making sure they don’t touch.
  • Cooking Time: Bake at a high temperature, around 425°F (220°C), for about 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through to ensure even browning. Keep an eye on them towards the end to prevent burning.
  • Dipping Sauces: Enhance the flavor with your favorite dips. Try honey mustard, sriracha mayo, or a yogurt-based dip with herbs and lemon.
