Yum!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-are-sweet-potato-fries-actually-healthy\">Are sweet potato fries actually healthy?<\/h2>\n<p>Yes! The deep fried sweet potato fries that you can pick up at your favorite restaurant aren\u2019t really any better for you than French fries. However, these homemade sweet potato fries are oven baked so they are much lower in calories and saturated fat so they\u2019re much better for you.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sweet potatoes are a great source of fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. What\u2019s more, you can ensure that your sweet potato fries are gluten-free since they aren\u2019t being fried with other foods that may contain gluten, leading to cross contamination.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-storage\">Storage<\/h2>\n<p>These fries taste best straight from the oven as they lose their crispiness once they cool. If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, bake in the oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 7-10 minutes or until warmed through. <\/p>\n<p>My favorite way to reheat and crisp them up again is to throw them in my air fryer for 5 minutes or so at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-more-delicious-sweet-potato-recipes\">More Delicious Sweet Potato Recipes<\/h2>\n<p>Sweet potatoes are packed with health benefits.
