Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
My oven-baked fries are every bit as good as the deep-fried kind.
Rich in beta-carotene, bright orange sweet potatoes help keep your eyes, skin and hair healthy, and also boost your immune system. They’re a good source of soluble fiber. And did I mention the calorie savings? This version has just 100 calories serving, compared to a fast food version with a whopping 500.

Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
My oven-baked fries are every bit as good as the deep-fried kind. This version has just 100 calories serving.
Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes, about 8 ounces each
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1¼ teaspoons kosher salt or coarse sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- Ground black pepper, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat a large baking sheet with nonstick oil spray and set aside.
- Slice off the ends of the potatoes and cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Cut each half into wedges or strips (approximately ¼ inch thick). Spread the fries out in a single layer on the baking sheet and spray liberally with nonstick oil spray. Sprinkle the fries evenly with seasonings
- Bake the fries for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through. To finish, set the oven to broil and broil for 5 more minutes (depending on how brown and crispy you like your fries—watch closely so they don’t burn).
