I air fried these until crispy on the edges and the FLAVOR was Fabulous! Great blend of spices! I changed nothing other than using Tastefully Simple seasoned Salt (bc I didn’t have Lowrys).
Michael Brown
I like my fries a little crispier and these were super yummy
Daniel Butler
Delicious

We really liked these! The spices and hot sauce created an addictive flavor. It’s hard to stop eating them! I also cooked the fries longer than suggested. Next time I will cut the fries thinner. Thanks for the recipe. I saved it to make again!
Linda Liu
Made these for dinner last night and i had to stop myself from eating all of them!
Paul Hoffman
I liked them, We ( my mom and I) baked them in the conventional oven and they turned out pretty good. I would make them again.

This recipe is fantastic! My husband isn’t a big fan of sweet potato fries, but the sweet and spicy flavor of this recipe was amazing! He ate all of it and wanted more!
Lisa Snyder

John Parker

Paul Rios
It turned out good.

These were very tasty. I baked them for an extra five minutes. They still weren’t crispy but they were a good texture.
Randy Riley
This is an easy healthy lunch, dinner or snack. I cut them into rounds or chips rather than fries cuz i Have more control over their thickness but thats the only thing i do differently. Really good recipie!!
Bruce Sanchez
I would bake these longer the next time. I liked the flavor, but not the texture – too soft. Also, I didn’t have paprika so substituted Cayenne powder though not as much. Gave it a kick!

sorry, just didn”t do it for me

These were great. We hate sweet seasonings on sweet potatoes but these savory spiced ones were great. Most of mine were floppy so next time I’ll bake them on a cookie rack in the sheet pan so they can maybe do less steaming. I did a regular potato with these and its texture was crisp so I think sweet potatoes must be wetter inside. These were a hit, my 4yo ate 3 fries and that’s amazing considering how much she hates potatoes! Thanks!

Absolutely delicious 🙂

We need a new rating system because these need 10 stars!! OMG these are so good. I ate all of them. Myself. I cut them with a spiralizer and cooked them in an airfryer. I used Franks wing sauce for the hot sauce on one potato and Sriracha on the second, cooking in two separate batches. Both were amazingly good. I served them with McCormick’s Utah Fry Sauce. Yum! Thank you magpie005 You Rock!
