Cumin spiced sweet potato fries are paleo and gluten free. These tasty seasoned fries make the perfect healthy and delicious snack or side dish. This recipe is served with a creamy avocado garlic dipping sauce.

I watched these fries in the oven as the sugars from the sweet potatoes bubbled and popped. A caramel sweetness bubbled around each fry… oh man, so good. Today as I was making a batch of these fries, I kept having family members keep checking in with me to ask when these sweet potato fries were going to be ready. They happen to be a family favorite and we just can’t stay away from their savory goodness and sweet spiced flavor. Sweet potatoes have been one of my main-stays since going Paleo and every time it gets me, I never get tired of them. Especially, when sweet potatoes are made into Cumin Spiced Fries! Try and stay away.

The garlic avocado dipping sauce that is served with this recipe is a recipe that I have made over and over and over again. My sister always begs me to make it when we have girls night. We will dip pretty much anything in it… roasted brussel sprouts, chips, put it on salad, fresh pepper slices, and other veggies. This dipping sauce is made in the food processor (or blender), so it only takes a handful of minutes to whip up. Dipping a warm fry into this creamy goodness makes me so happy. I just do it over and over again. To purchase a food processor, you can order one right here.

About Sweet Potatoes

Did you know that sweet potatoes are great for balancing hormones??? Maybe that’s why I crave them so much! Ha ha, no joke. Sweet potatoes are a delicious nutrient rich carb compared to your morning slice of toast or muffin. I have found that eating sweet potatoes in my breakfast or lunch is a great way to achieve that “full” feeling in my tummy. I have a really hard time absorbing and assimilating the nutrients that I consume through food, so I have had to experiment to see what foods fuel my body best! Sweet potatoes happen to be one of them:)
