Today included attending class, an afternoon run/workout, & laundry along with other things.
Sweet Potato Fries
Ingredients:
- 3 or 4 sweet potatoes
- dash of cinnamin
- scant salt
- 5 or 6 tsp olive oil (I used extra virgin but you could sub coconut oil)*
- 2 or 3 tsp sugar (you could sub agave or maple syrup)
- optional: coconut shreds, brown sugar, and/or marshmallows
*Let me know how you think these taste if you decide to sub the coconut oil
Directions:
1.Slice and soak the sweet potatoes in water for 15-30 minutes
2. Preheat oven to 385 degrees, mix everything together, and lay the fries on the pan.
Bake 20-30 minutes, turning halfway through (bake longer or shorter if needed)
Some notes:
They taste wonderful plain, however I served mine with microwave oatmeal mixed with maple syrup and vegan butter.
You could serve them with things like: ketchup, mustard, applesauce, yogurt, marshmellow spread, maple syrup, agave nectar, melted coconut butter, etc.
I drizzled mine with a drizzle of maple syrup, which I found makes a little bit of a difference in taste.

I love sweet potato fries! They would be SO good with marshmallow spread. Why have I not tried that?!
great post thanks
I don’t think I could ever make sweet potato fried cause I would just eat them all. Seriously.

sweet potato fries are the ultimate way to prepare sweet potatoes, I love some cayenne on them which gives a little punch of flavor and heat yum!
I usually go the savory route with sweet potatoes. I especially like them with curry. I’ll have to try them this way. Thanks 🙂
