Oven-Baked Sweet Potato 'Fries'

By adriennehannis

Ingredients

• 2 large garnet yams
• 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, melted (I just nuke it in the microwave for ~30 seconds)
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground pepper
• Smoked parika (or your favorite seasoning – cinnamon works well, too!)

Preparation

Step 1

I preheated the oven to 375 F on convection bake (or 400 F in a non-convection oven).

I peeled the yams and cut them into even matchsticks. Then, I placed them on a foil-lined baking tray (line with parchment paper for a crisper exterior)…

…and tossed the yams with the coconut oil, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.

I popped the fries in the oven for about 30 minutes, flipping the frites and tray halfway through.

When they were tender in the middle and browned on the edges, I plated them up and we dug in.
