Ingredients
  

For the Wedges
  • 2 Medium Sweet Potatoes Provide the main base for the wedges, offering natural sweetness.
  • 2 Tbsp Olive Oil Helps achieve a crispy texture; feel free to substitute with avocado oil for a different flavor.
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt Enhances flavor; sea salt can be used as a great alternative.
  • 1 tsp Ground Black Pepper Adds a slight heat for balance and depth in flavor.
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika Contributes a smoky flavor profile; if you prefer a milder taste, regular paprika works well too.
  • 0.5 tsp Ground Cinnamon Brings warmth and sweetness; you can omit if not preferred.
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Boosts savory depth; for a punchier flavor, swap in fresh minced garlic.
For Dipping (Optional)
  • 0.25 cup Tahini Offers a creamy and nutty contrast to the sweetness.
  • 0.5 cup Avocado Dip A smooth and healthy option that pairs wonderfully.
  • 0.5 cup Yogurt Ranch Dressing Adds a tangy and delicious creaminess that everyone loves.
