Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (approximately 7 ounces each)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt*

Preparation

Baking Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cut potatoes into steak fries — slice thin lengthwise strips, and then cut those strips in half.

Aim for fries to be approximately 1/4-inch thick.

Coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and lay out sliced sweet potato strips.

Lightly brush all individual potato strips with olive oil (or use canola oil cooking spray) and lightly sprinkle with cinnamon.

Evenly top with salt.

*Place in oven on bottom rack and cook for 20 minutes.

(For added sweetness, sprinkle 1 to 2 teaspoons sugar or Splenda sweetener evenly over fries before placing in the oven.)

Then set oven to broil, move to higher rack and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes —depending on how browned and crunchy you prefer your fries.

*For folks who are following a salt-restrictive diet, skip the salt or use salt substitute.
