Sweet Potato Fry Sauce
I love sweet potato fries! They're sweet, tender, and utterly delicious - making them is a perfect way to use up extra sweet potatoes from the holidays. And there's no better way to compliment a basket of toasty fries than the best dipping sauce for sweet potato fries!

And don't worry about it taking a while to make! With just a handful of easy ingredients and two steps to make, it'll be ready in minutes and easily stored for dinner! Try it out, and you'll understand why it's my favorite sweet potato fry dipping sauce!

Sweet Potato Fry Sauce FAQs
Sweet potatoes are naturally sweet, so the best way to add a little spice is with a coating and topping it off with a dip. Try seasoning sweet potatoes with paprika, chili powder and garlic powder, then add sriracha and sour cream to the dip for an extra kick of flavor.
There are two classic flavor profiles paired with sweet potatoes: sweet, and spicy. Sweet flavors typically lean into brown sugar and maple with earthy, rich flavors. For fries, spicy, tart flavors balance out how sweet the potatoes themselves are.
