Wow! Very tasty, indeed. The combination of the savoriness of the paprika with the deliciousness of the cinnamon along with the awesome combo of sweet and salty with the salt and brown sugar mixture was a winning ensemble of flavors. Make plenty because they will go fast! I cut up several smaller sweet potatoes and had an abundance of the olive oil mixture left over. Be sure not to cut them too thin because they get pretty soft in the oven. I started on 425 then lowered to 375. I increased the heat to 450 for the last two minutes. I only had to bake them for 20 minutes. Serve warm and immediately.

Yum - I loved these. I did not expect them to be crispy, as though from a deep fryer - and am glad they were not. They were golden brown, and perfectly soft ... and I was skeptical about the paprika/cinnamon combination, but along with the salt, they were delicious. I left off the brown sugar altogether as I'm not big on sweets. I was looking for an easy recipe for sweet potato fries that was really good, and this was it.

This recipe is great! I took the advice of others and added the brown sugar towards the end of cooking. I also tried the fries before adding the sugar and they were already really good. Will definitely make again.
