Recipe type: Side Dish/Vegetable/Healthy
Serves: 6-8 servings
Ingredients
  • 2-3 medium-sized sweet potatoes, halved and then wedged into ⅓-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup canola oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt (3/4 tsp if you only use 2 sweet potatoes)
  • pinch of ground pepper
  • 1½ tbsp cornstarch
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. (This is the best way to guarantee they won't stick.)
  3. In a large mixing bowl combine the cut wedges and all the other ingredients.
  4. Mix well until each wedge is evenly coated with oil and spices.
  5. Next, place each wedge down in rows on the baking sheet, trying to keep them about ¼-inch apart. You may need to bake them in two batches.
  6. Bake the wedges for 12 minutes, and then carefully flip all of them over. I use a fork to do this. Return to the oven and bake for 15 more minutes.
  7. If desired, you can put them under the broiler for a minute after they are finished cooking if you would like a little more browning.
  8. Serve while hot/warm and Enjoy!
