Roasted Sweet Potato Fries

Roasted Sweet Potato Fries are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. So much better for you than deep fried potatoes.

Hi. It’s Lois in the kitchen with a healthier option for fries—Roasted Sweet Potato Fries. Easy peasy and tasty, too.

Do you know that sweet potatoes are better for you than white potatoes? If you are diabetic like I am (or you don’t want to be diabetic like I am), then choose sweet potatoes. The Glycemic Index of a sweet potato is about half that of a white potato. I like sweet potatoes most ways. Roasted Sweet Potato Fries top my list.

Check out the recipe.

You Will Need a Good Pan for Roasted Sweet Potato Fries

If you don’t have a Jelly Roll Pan, I suggest you get one or two. Jelly Roll Pans are much handier than a cookie sheet (no lip) because you can use them for baking anything—cookies, cakes, Roasted Sweet Potato Fries, roasting a chicken, and much more. I have an old one my mom gave me when I set up my first apartment. Here’s a jelly roll pan by OXO, which always makes good products, that I like:
