Recipe Tips

For a spicier version of these sweet potato fries, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix. Alternatively, you can serve them with a spicy dip like sriracha mayo or chipotle aioli. To make the dip vegan, you can substitute the Greek yogurt with a non-dairy yogurt like coconut or soy. You can also use maple syrup instead of honey for a vegan sweetener.
