🥘 Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

-
Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Start by peeling the sweet potatoes and cutting them into bite-sized pieces.
-
Seasoning: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato pieces with olive oil, ground cloves, and ground cinnamon. Ensure that the seasoning coats all the pieces evenly.
-
Spread on Pan: Spread the seasoned sweet potato pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet. While stoneware is preferred for its even heating, you can also use glass or a metal cookie sheet.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes.

Broil (Optional): After baking, if you desire extra crispiness, you can place the sweet potato fries under the broiler for 2 minutes or until they turn golden brown. If you prefer not to use a broiler, you can increase the oven temperature to 475°F (245°C), but be sure to watch them closely to prevent burning.
-
Serve: Once cooked to your desired level of crispiness, remove the sweet potato fries from the oven and serve immediately.
