Notes
Storage: To store leftover crispy baked sweet potato fries, let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing them in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer-safe bag or container, where they can last for up to 2 months.
Reheating: To reheat your sweet potato fries while maintaining their crispiness, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the fries on a baking sheet and bake for about 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Alternatively, you can use an air fryer for 5-7 minutes at a similar temperature for a quick and crispy result.
Serving: Serve the crispy baked sweet potato fries as a healthy snack or side dish. They pair well with a variety of dips, such as hummus, guacamole, or a yogurt-based sauce. For an extra touch, sprinkle some fresh herbs or additional spices on top just before serving.
Chef’s Tip: For even crispier fries, soak the cut sweet potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes before seasoning and baking. This helps to remove excess starch, resulting in a better texture. Additionally, ensure that the fries are spread out in a single layer on the baking sheet to allow for proper airflow during baking.
