Sweet Potato Fries With Coconut & Cinnamon
When I’m in the mood for something that feels a little “naughty”, there’s nothing more satisfying than cooking up a bowl of sweet potato fries. I discovered this recipe recently and I’m in love! Not only are these fries baked and 100% good for you, the cinnamon and coconut adds a rich depth of flavor. They are finger-licking good!
If you're after a savory version, just swap the cinnamon for black pepper and a dash of cayenne or you could try a rosemary and sea salt version.
