Oven Baked Purple Sweet Potato Fries




Ingredients
1 pound purple sweet potatoes
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried basil




Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400* F.
2. Peel potatoes.
3. Slice potatoes into layers, then slice those into strips. You can make them as thick or as thin as you want, but know that thicker slices will need longer in the oven.
4. Put the potato strips into a reusable container with a lid or a Ziploc bag with the oil and seasonings. Shake them to coat.
5. Spread the potato strips across a cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
6. Flip the potato strips and return to the oven to bake for at least 10-15 more minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and eat hot.

Tips
1. Bake the potatoes for longer for crunchier potatoes or deep fry them.
2. I cover my cookie sheet with foil for an easier clean up.
