Sweet potatoes are LOADED with vitamin A and fiber. The drizzle of maple syrup (which is surprisingly nutritious too) turns the naturally sweet spuds from the ordinary into the extraordinary, while the flax seeds provide a crunchy coating and a dose of omega-3s. It’s the perfect balance of sweet and salty!

Here’s how to make Sweet Potato Superfood Fries:


Ingredients:

  • 1 medium sweet potato
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon ground flax
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Cinnamon to taste


Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400º F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice the sweet potato into fry shape, taking care to make each piece the same size (~ 1/4″).
  3. Drizzle the maple syrup into a large bowl, and toss the fries in, making sure they’re all evenly coated by massaging them with your fingers.
  4. Transfer the coated fries into a Ziploc baggie and add the flax, sea salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Close the baggie and begin shaking/massaging it to ensure all of the fries are evenly coated.
  6. Empty the fries onto the baking sheet, and bake for 40 minutes, turning them halfway through.
  7. Allow cooling slightly before enjoying. They taste wonderful on their own, and even better when dipped in nut butter, ketchup, or hummus.
