The fries

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes

  • 3 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 tbsp corn starch
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp sweet paprika
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Clean the sweet potatoes, remove ends if necessary, and cut into long, thin, uniform strips about ¼" thick.
  2. Soak the potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours in the fridge.
  3. Preheat the oven to 475°F and place a large baking sheet inside.
  4. Drain, rinse, and pat dry the potato strips.
  5. Drizzle the potato strips with avocado oil and toss to coat evenly.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix corn starch, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, paprika, ground pepper, and red pepper flakes.
  7. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the oil-coated potato strips and toss to coat evenly.
  8. Carefully take the hot baking sheet out of the oven and reduce the temperature to 450°F.
  9. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the potato strips in a single layer without overlapping.
  10. Bake for 15 minutes, then flip each fry individually.
  11. Resume baking for another 10-15 minutes until fries are crispy and golden.
  12. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with salt, and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
