I have a pretty good recipe, and it's supposedly the family recipe, but I think they're keeping a secret ingredient from me or something, because mine never tastes like theirs. And it gets particularly weird and wonky when I try to make it a small batch, so as I am the only person in my house that likes the stuff, and if I made a huge casserole, I'd eat it, these fries, for lack of a better word, are my go to when I have a hankering. Yours is a little different from the one I have. I don't think ours calls for condensed milk. Maybe that's the richness missing when I try to make it.

Thanks for the idea!<br /><br />Yes, my sweet potato souflee recipe is definitely a holiday only dish around here because it's not the healthiest way to use sweet potatoes, but it is SO GOOD. Everyone that's had it loves it. Last year I tried using less sugar, but I think it's best as the recipe calls for.Lake Livin'https://www.blogger.com/profile/09965188246981544601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-14030939431036238372016-04-12T16:19:28.687-04:002016-04-12T16:19:28.687-04:00Seeing the sweet potato souffle recipe made me thi...Seeing the sweet potato souffle recipe made me think of one of mine and Druid's favorites: Sweet potato bites/fries. To me, they taste like sweet potato souffle, but without all the fuss or extra fat. Druid eats them by the handfuls. Even B said they're "not bad," which considering he won't even look sideways at a sweet potato is really high praise. <br /><br />Sweet potatoes<br />Brown Sugar<br />Cinnamon <br />Oil<br /><br />The amounts aren't specific. I've made a single sweet potato before. <br /><br />Slice em, dice em, cut em into fry-like sticks, just whatever makes you happy, and put em in a bowl that will hold em. <br /><br />Now, you've got a couple of options. I know I said cinnamon and brown sugar up there, but that's only part of the truth. If you want them savory, you can just as easily use salt and pepper, chili powder for some kick, leave them plain, nobody is judging. I just particularly love sweet tater pie, souffle, casserole, candied sweet taters; sweet taters are just supposed to be sweet to me. <br /><br />Anyway, once you've decided what you want on them, toss them with just enough oil to lightly coat them. Don't drown them in it. Then, sprinkle your chosen seasonings and toss till every one of them has at least something on it, if you are even using seasonings. <br /><br />Put them on a cookie sheet, in a pie plate, in a casserole dish, or whatever, and bake them at 350 for 30-60 minutes. If you chunk them up really big, you need more time. If you're making small cubes for a toddler, you need less. Just poke em now and them with a fork or something, and when they're as tender as you want, pull them out.
