These Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries are a must-try vegan snack — crispy on the outside, soft inside, and naturally sweet. They’re a healthier alternative to regular fries, loaded with fiber, vitamins, and slow-digesting carbs that help you stay full longer.

Pair them with homemade vegan mayo or hummus, and you’ve got a snack that’s trending on every plant-based food blog right now.

Ingredients

• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries

• 1½ tbsp olive oil

• 1 tbsp cornstarch (for extra crispiness)

• 1/2 tsp paprika

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

• Salt & pepper to taste

• Fresh herbs (optional for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).

2. Soak sweet potato fries in cold water for 20 minutes to remove excess starch. Pat them dry.

3. Toss fries in a bowl with cornstarch, then add olive oil and seasonings.

4. Spread evenly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper (avoid crowding).

5. Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown.

6. Serve hot with your favorite vegan dip or hummus.
