Roasted Sweet Potato Sticks

Recipes

Use sweet potatoes to make a healthy and tasty alternative to regular French fries.

Ingredients:

  • 3 to 4 sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries (optional)

Directions:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Lightly oil a large baking sheet and set aside.
  • Peel the sweet potatoes then cut them in half lengthwise. Cut each in half into 1/4-inch wide strips.
  • Place the sliced potatoes into a large bowl and add the oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Toss gently to coat the potato slices well and spread them on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake until potatoes are lightly browned and crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, about 25 minutes.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with dried cranberries, if desired.
