If you are like me, there is nothing like a big plates of fries! Luckily today’s Menu Monday is a healthier, more heart-friendly version that is just as delicious!
Oven-Baked Sweet Potato Fries
Ingredients
- 2 large garnet yams
- 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, melted (I just nuke it in the microwave for ~30 seconds)
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground pepper
- Smoked parika (or your favorite seasoning – cinnamon works well, too!)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 F on convection bake (or 400 F in a non-convection oven).
- Peel the yams and cut them into even matchsticks. Then, place them on a foil-lined baking tray (line with parchment paper for a crisper exterior).
- Toss the yams with the coconut oil, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
- Cook in oven for about 30 min, flipping fries half-way through (they are done when they are tender in the middle and crispy on the edges).
