Notes
Tips
- Slice your sweet potatoes somewhat thin and keep them as uniform as possible. This helps keep the fries crispy on the outside while cooking all the way through in a short amount of time!
- Bake on the bottom rack of the oven. This allows them to crisp up quickly without burning.
- Turn just once. This allows the sweet potatoes to brown on both sides evenly.
- Don't overcrowd! Spread the fries throughout a large pan, or perhaps even two pans. Don't allow them to touch - this is what creates that soggy situation. Give them room to breathe as they bake!
- Break out your oldest sheet pan - you know the one you're embarrassed to own, but secretly love? If you can, avoid non-stick pans. This will make them nice and crunchy!
