Baked Sweet potato fries

 

4 servings

1/2 teaspoon sugar

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon oregano 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 4 medium sweet potatoes 3 tablespoons olive oil Directions: Combine all spices in a small bowl. Set aside. Preheat oven to 450ºF. Wash potatoes and pat dry with paper towels. Do not peel them. Slice each potato into french-fry-like wedges (about 10 fries per potato, depending on the size of the potato). Toss fries in a large bowl with olive oil until well-coated, then toss with spice blend. Spread fries evenly on a non-stick baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 8 minutes. Turn fries over and bake an additional 7 minutes, or until tender. The exact cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fries. Make sure you don’t over-bake them, or they’ll be soggy.
