I boiled my sweet potatoes first for about 20 minutes. Then peeled them, cut them into sticks layed on baking sheet and then drizzled olive oil over them, salted them and sprinkled brown sugar on them. Then baked for 30 minutes. They turned out crispy and wonderful.

Not bad. The taste was a little incomplete and I wasn't fond of the texture. They were less crispy than I anticipated. But I will keep this recipe as a starting point for next time I make sweet potatoes.

With a few tweaks (following other reviewers' advice) this was a FABULOUS new way to do sweet potatoes. We skinned the potatoes then sliced them into circles (just easier to cut that way). Then I sprayed both sides with olive oil spray. In a zip-loc bag, I mixed brown sugar, paprika, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to taste. Then I shook the potatoes in the bag, put them on a foil-lined cookie sheet and baked at 425 for 45 minutes. My boyfriend and I raved about them. Great, great treat.

AMAZING! I placed the sticks in a large bowl and mixed w/ the olive oil and lots of minced garlic and parsley and salt. The result were some of the most delicious fries - my husband even thought they topped the garlic fries at red robin. We will definitely make again.

Very, very tasty. I added a little salt and brown sugar and enjoyed it very much. I'm going to go buy more sweet potatoes tonight!

These were quite good, but I thought they needed more flavor. I'll have to try them with some of the other spice suggestions next time. I also sliced them thinly instead of sticks and I found they cooked very unevenly - some burnt others still wiggly. I'll have to try them as sticks next time.

Good, but really needs salt and pepper added to the oil mix. And carefully watch your cooking time. If your sticks are skinnier they'll burn if you leave them in for the full 40 minutes and the recipe doesn't state exactly how big the sticks should be. I also recommend flipping half way through.

Even my husband who is not crazy about sweet potato took to this one... We love spice but didn't have paprika so used a Cajun seasoning which I used liberally. I probably cut the sweet potatoes a little too thin so will do the wedges next time but everyone in my family loves this at dinner and as a grazing snack!

I have to admit I did a couple changes, but it turned out so tasty! :D I added to the seasonings: salt, pepper & cinnamon-sugar. I also microwaved the slices (~5 min) to give them a head-start on baking, before the oil & seasoning step. Will make many, many more times!

I tried both the cinnamon and the spicy versions. The spicy version won with garlic & onion powder & paparika. I will add cayenne & chilli pepper next time. They were surprisingly good with ketchup. I baked one type in a glass pan & the other in a dark metal pan. The ones in the dark metal pan came out the crispiest. Very healthy snack.

For how simple this side dish is, it certianly delivered! Everyone kept going back for seconds and thirds...and since the sweet potato selection at the grocery store wasn't too great, I ended up making a few batches with sweet potatoes and a few batches with yams. The yams were actually my favorite since they were a bit sweeter. For dipping I made an easy sauce by blending a couple of chipotle peppers (seeds removed) with a bottle of ranch dressing. If you want to make this dip you can buy canned chipotle in adobo sauce at the store, gradually add the peppers to blender until desired spicyness.

I made these as a side dish for our "Luau" dinner party. They had GREAT flavor (I used the paprika and added 1/2 tsp of Garlic Salt). But they were a little mushy. I would have liked them to be crispy, but I know that is hard with sweet potatoes. Over all, really good!

Sweet potatoes are awesome. They barely need any seasoning. I like mine crispy so I cook them at 450 on a stone pan with just enough olive oil and nothing else. The are great cold as leftovers.

This is the best recipe I have found on the site. I took the advice to use garlic powder, chili powder, salt and pepper with olive oil in a plastic bag. It can be difficult to slice the sweet potatoes so use a sharp knife. I recommend slicing the outside of the potato, the "skin", off in large flat sections like potato chips. Cook at 375 for an hour and flip once, you won't regret it!
