The best sweet potato fries

This may be controversial, but I’m going to go on record saying that the best sweet potato fries are actually cut into rounds and not fry shape.  *gasp*

I know that this news will probably rock your world, but it’s the truth.  And sometimes the truth hurts.  I just tell it like it is folks!

Have you ever noticed that when you cut a sweet potato into fry shape it doesn’t really get crispy?  Try it my way and you’ll never look back.  Plus it gets really cool cheetah-like spots when you cut them into rounds and who doesn’t like that?!

Place onto a foil lined baking sheet that’s been spritzed with a little cooking spray (or olive oil)

I usually use it quite generously, but it can be a bit spicy when you use a lot of it.  Just warning you!

Bake in a 475 F oven and flip when the bottom starts to brown up (10-15 minutes).

Bake until they reach the desired spottiness and devour with ketchup or whatever condiments you like!

They’re cheetah-licious!  I’d eat these things all day every day if I wouldn’t turn orange!

Enjoy your fries!
