For extra crispiness, soak the cut sweet potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before tossing with oil and spices. Feel free to add a pinch of brown sugar to the spice mix for a touch of sweetness. Experiment with other spices like cinnamon or ginger for a unique flavor profile. Serve these wedges with your favorite dipping sauce, such as aioli, ranch, or a spicy mayo.
