Directions
Warm your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lay the sweet potato slices out in a single layer on two baking sheets. Give them a light spray of cooking spray, then sprinkle half of the garlic-pepper seasoning over the top. Pop the trays in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes. Once that time’s up, flip the slices over, spray the other side, and add the rest of the seasoning. Keep baking for another 15 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender and crispy around the edges. Let them cool for a few minutes before digging in!
How To Serve This Dish
Serve these crispy slices as a snack with your favorite dipping sauce like garlic aioli or spicy ketchup. They also make a great side dish for grilled chicken or a fresh salad to add some texture and sweetness.
Leftover Storage Guide
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, use the oven or an air fryer to keep them crispy instead of microwaving, which can make them soggy.
