- 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the sweet potatoes. Toss again until all the fries are well coated.
- Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for optimal crispiness.
- Bake the sweet potato fries in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
