Ingredients:
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon coarse black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
Clean the sweet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into wedge-shaped sticks, about 1/2-inch thick. Set aside.
Step 3: Beat the Eggs
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. This will act as the base coating for the sweet potato sticks.
Step 4: Make the Parmesan Coating
In another medium bowl, combine the shredded Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, paprika, salt, black pepper, dried parsley, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
Step 5: Coat the Sweet Potatoes
Dip each sweet potato stick into the beaten eggs, making sure it’s fully coated. Then, transfer the sweet potato into the Parmesan mixture and coat it thoroughly. Shake off any excess coating.
Step 6: Bake the Sweet Potatoes
Place the coated sweet potato sticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure even crisping. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are crispy and golden brown.
Step 7: Serve
Remove the sweet potato sticks from the oven and serve hot. These Garlic Parmesan Sweet Potato Sticks are perfect as a side dish or snack and pair wonderfully with your favorite dipping sauce.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with a side of garlic aioli, ranch dressing, or ketchup for dipping.
- These sweet potato sticks pair well with burgers, sandwiches, or grilled meats for a complete meal.
Cooking Note:
- You can make these sweet potato sticks spicier by increasing the amount of cayenne pepper or adding a dash of chili powder.
- For extra crispiness, flip the sweet potato sticks halfway through baking.
Tips:
- Be sure to cut the sweet potatoes into evenly sized sticks to ensure they cook evenly.
- If you prefer a gluten-free option, you can substitute almond flour for the Parmesan cheese to create a crunchy coating.
