Just made our first attempt at sweet potato fries – oven baked. We modified it somewhat. — used coconut oil spray, flaked sea salt, cinnamon and sprinkled a very small amount brown sugar mix (of half erythritol and half light brown sugar) we like after the baking was done. (We realize that the use of any sugar is not encouraged on this site, and hope that our idea doesn’t lead anyone astray!). Delicious! Your proportions in the recipe were a good guideline for a newbie to this in general. And I think we may one day try the spices recommended in recipe.

I would like to add, that leaving the peel on the potatoes is the best thing to do.

There are multiple nutritional benefits to eating the peels of sweet potatoes.

In reply to Brenda. Hi! I'm a uni student so unfortunately, I don't have an oven in my tiny room. Is there any alternative to cooking in the oven? Like a frying pan or something else?

Just tried these. Mine scorched a bit in the oven but not enough to take away from the the yummy flavor. Will definitely try again, but will reduce temperature a bit, next time.

What do the asterisks mean in the nutritional information?

In reply to Jenna. They won't ever be as crispy without frying, but you could try broiling for a minute or two.

These were great. I’m not very experienced in cooking so I have a question for those of you that are. They were really good but we both agreed they would be better if they were a little crispier. How would I go about doing that? Cook them longer? Broil?

I love sweet potato fries. How do you cut them? They are so hard I can never get nice fries.

i am a diabetic controlling by food so no sugar and i also have to watch my carbs when it comes to bread products but not ones in my veggies or fruit…………….can not have anything white such as potatoes, rice, pasta or wheat and have been advised to stay away as much as possible from the whole wheat………………did you know that although the carb count is high in sweet potatoes it is a slow releasing carb which is perfect for people like myself as it keep you feeling fuller longer………
your website is just perfect for my lifestyle and i love your recipes…………..thank you

Followed the recipe exactly and they turned out amazing! I’m a busy university student who’s been spending all of her time in the library studying for finals so this is a delicious and quick meal that I’ll be having for lunch and dinner today. Definitely beats campus food 🙂

Just made these for lunch, and added some carrots because I didn’t have enough sweet potatoes. Absolutely delicious. Would have eaten the whole batch if no one else in the house had smelt them cooking, and come sniffing around. 🙂
