Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries

Spreading out the sweet potatoes on the baking sheet, tossing them mid-way through, & baking at 400°F help to make these baked fries extra crispy!

Ingredients:

• 3 large sweet potatoes
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 Tbsp fresh thyme
• Black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F & line two baking sheets with parchment paper. 
2. Cut the sweet potatoes into fry-shaped pieces (about 1/4” thick).
3. Divide the fries evenly between the two baking sheets.
4. Drizzle olive oil over the fries, then sprinkle them with salt, thyme, & black pepper. Then, toss the fries to evenly coat them.
5. Spread out the fries in an even layer on the baking sheets, making sure none overlap so they can get crispy.
6. Bake the fries on the center oven rack for 20 minutes, then toss them around with a spatula & rearrange them into an even, spread out layer. Bake for another 12-15 minutes or until browned & crispy. Then, enjoy! (If both sheets do not fit on the same rack, bake one sheet on the top rack & one on the bottom rack for 15 mins. Then, toss the sweet potatoes around with a spatula & switch the two baking sheets on the racks so the one baked on the top rack is now on the bottom & the one baked on the bottom rack is now on the top. Finish baking for 15 more minutes until crispy).
