These spiced sweet potato wedges are a delightful twist on classic fries, offering a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lining the baking sheet with parchment paper prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into evenly sized wedges.
Try to cut the wedges uniformly to ensure even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the spices thoroughly to ensure an even coating on the wedges.
Add the sweet potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Use your hands to gently toss the wedges for better coverage.
Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to allow proper roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.
Flipping the wedges ensures they cook evenly on all sides.
Serve the spiced sweet potato wedges warm, optionally with your favorite dipping sauce.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley for added flavor and presentation.
