Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup grated Parmesan
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon coarse ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
2. Wash and quarter sweet potatoes into wedges.
3. Beat eggs in a medium bowl and set aside.
4. In another bowl, mix Parmesan, salt, pepper, garlic powder, parsley, oregano, paprika, and cayenne.
5. Dip each wedge in the beaten eggs, then coat in the Parmesan mixture; shake off excess.
6. Arrange wedges in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet.
7. Bake for 20 minutes, or until coating is golden brown and crisp.
8. Remove from oven and serve warm with your preferred dipping sauce.
Notes
Choose sweet potatoes with smooth skin and minimal bumps for easier slicing.
Scrub potatoes well to soften the skins.
Thicker wedges bake up softer inside; thinner wedges get crispier.
Use a zip-top bag to coat wedges cleanly and evenly.
Shake off excess coating before baking for best texture.
