Notes
- Cut thin for crispy, oven-baked sweet potato fries. Slice thick for chunky wedges. Both are delicious, just different personalities. You can also cut them into rounds.
- Try to cut the sweet potatoes evenly. This will help in even cooking.
- Give each fry space. Crowding or piling the tray means steaming, not crisping. Spread them in a single layer for golden glory.
- When they’re nicely browned, switch on the broiler for the last 4–5 minutes. It’ll blister the slices, making them extra crispy.
- Reheat the fries in the oven, air fryer, or skillet. The microwave will make them soggy.
