Omit the smoked paprika and black pepper. Season simply with salt and a little garlic powder.
Add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or red chili flakes along with the other spices for a spicy kick.

The keys to crispy fries are a hot oven (425°F/220°C), not overcrowding the pan, and cutting them into thin, even strips. A light coating of oil also helps them crisp up.
Baked sweet potato fries are best served fresh out of the oven. However, you can cut the potatoes ahead of time and store them in water in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just be sure to dry them thoroughly before baking.
