Sweet Potato “Fries”

Here’s a great way to make a nutritious side dish — or excellent snack — from sweet potatoes.

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit on convection roast (or 365 without convection)
  2. Wash and cut an unpeeled sweet potato into thin slices.
  3.  Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray oil (or use a spray device to thinly coat the cookie sheet with olive oil).
  4. Place slices onto the cookie sheet and bake for 20 to 22 minutes (to desired texture).
  5. If a more crispy outer edge is desired, briefly pan-fry (use a thin coating of olive or other oil — pecan oil adds an interesting flavor!) the slices.
  6. Serve Hot!
