Baked Parmesan Sweet Potato Fries
These quick and easy Baked Parmesan Sweet Potato Fries are a delicious healthier side dish that is baked in the oven instead of fried then topped with fresh Parmesan cheese!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 lbs sweet potatoes, washed and peeled (2 medium to large size sweet potatoes)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F.
- Line a baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Slice potatoes into thin wedges or 1/4 inch strips with a sharp non-serrated knife.
- In a large Ziploc bag, combine sliced sweet potatoes and oil, seal tightly, and shake to coat the fries.
- Pour in garlic salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper, seal tightly, and shake again to evenly coat the fries in the seasoning.
- Pour fries onto the prepared baking pan and spread out so the fries cook evenly.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through so that each side of the fries gets time to brown and crisp.
- Be careful not to burn the fries.
- Once removed from the oven, sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese.
- Garnish as desired.
