How to Make Sweet Potato Fries With Cinnamon And Maple Syrup Light

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel 2 large sweet potatoes. Cut each sweet potato lengthwise in half, then cut each half into 4 wedges.
In a medium bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the sweet potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons maple syrup and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully flip the sweet potato fries.
Brush the fries evenly with the maple syrup mixture.
Bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the fries are tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
