Baked sweet potato fries are a superfood staple. In today’s video, I talk about the sweet potato and prepare one of my go-to weeknight recipes. 3 ingredients, easy to put together and always a crowd pleaser. What’s not to love?
Happy watching and healthy eating!
Rosemary Sweet Potato Fries
Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary, finely chopped (about 11/2 teaspoons)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 425 ◦F. Wash the potato and scrub the skin with a vegetable brush.
2. Cut the potato into fries, about 1/2 inch in thickness.
3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes in the olive oil. Add the rosemary, salt and pepper.
4. Spread the fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Put into preheated oven for 10 minutes. Then, flip the fries and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes.
Enjoy!

Thanks Vanessa, I also love sweet potato frys and I will try with olive oil and rosmary instead of coconut oil, canella, paprika and chili. They’ll be great with many other types of meals! 🙂

Give them a try, hope you enjoy. Your paprika-chili combo sounds pretty tasty too!

We’re huge french fry and rosemary fans, although I haven’t tried pairing them together yet. It sounds delicious, especially with your sweet potato twist! I’ve heard that soaking the cut potatoes for 10-20 minutes before baking them makes for crispier fries; have you tried that before?

I’ve soaked white potatoes before, but never sweet potatoes. Will give it a try, thx Amy!
