Notes
Why won't my sweet potato fries get crispy?
There could be a few different reasons why your oven-roasted sweet potato fries won’t get crispy. If you didn’t coat them in arrowroot powder or corn starch, that could be why they aren’t crispy. Alternatively, you could soak them in water beforehand, which can also help them get extra crispy. Finally, you can always turn your oven to broil for the last 5 minutes or so to really up their crispiness if you like.
Storage Tips
Let the fries cool to room temperature to maintain crispiness. Then, store them in an airtight glass container for up to five days in the fridge.
