Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 sweet potatoes, (scrubbed)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or butter (melted (or oil of your choice))
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Slice just about all the way through each potato. To make this easier, I put a wooden spoon on either side of the potato to act as a barrier so the knife wouldn't go all the way down. You'll want each slice to be about 1/8" thin.
  • Combine the olive oil and coconut oil or butter (or other oil) mixture in a small bowl. Brush this mixture along the top and sides of each potato (you won't use all of it), reserving the remainder.
  • Combine the salt, smoked paprika, sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle/rub the spice blend all over each potato, reserving some as well.
  • Roast for 35 minutes, and then remove from the oven. Brush the potatoes again with the remaining oil/butter mixture, this time trying to get it between each slice the best you can (the slices should be more fanned out now). Sprinkle the spice blend between slices.
  • Put the potatoes back in the oven and and roast for another 30-35 minutes, or until the exteriors have crisped and a fork or tester can easily be inserted into the center of a slice. Serve immediately.
