Spicy Sweet Potato Fries


Earlier this week, I posted a recipe for Curry Sweet Potatoes.  I consider that my "fancy" sweet potato recipe.  My "casual" (aka I make once a week) sweet potato recipe is Spicy Sweet Potato Fries.  I always have the spices on hand, and they taste perfect dipped in ketchup. What could be easier?


INGREDIENTS
3 large sweet potatoes
1 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
1  tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
kosher salt to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees

2. Cut sweet potatoes into fry shape and put into a large bowl

2. Toss fries with oil and spices

3. Line baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil

4. Spread evenly on a baking pan

5. Bake for 15 minutes; flip the fries

6. Bake for an additional 10 minutes or until done (careful not to burn)

7. Serve with ketchup
