If you aren’t the biggest fan of the sweetness of a sweet potato, think again! This simple seasoning blend adds the perfect balance to the crispy, caramelized exterior, making these the perfect side to pair with just about any dish.
I like to make my sweet potatoes into wedges that way I can pick them up and dip them into my favorite ketchup from Primal Kitchen.
Ingredients:
2 large sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Wash and dry your sweet potatoes (THIS PART IS VERY IMPORTANT, MAKE SURE THEY ARE VERY DRY OR YOU WILL HAVE MUSHY POTATOES).
Step 2
Slice the sweet potatoes into 1/2 inch thick wedges. Put in a large mixing bowl & toss the potatoe wedges in the olive oil. Add all of your seasoning and toss to coat all wedges. Spread onto prepared baking sheet, making sure none of the potatoes overlap each other.
Step 3
Place in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, then take them out and flip them, place back in oven for another 10-12 minutes, repeat one more time or until desired crispiness (total time in oven is roughly 35 minutes).
Enjoy!
Recipe Note: If you want your sweet potatoes even more crispy, after total cook time, put your oven on its High Broil setting for 3 minutes on each side. Make sure to pay close attention so they don’t burn.
