We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: At least 30 minutes prior place sliced potatoes in bowl and cover with water.

  • Step 2: Preheat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet(s) with aluminum foil (makes clean-up a snap). Use two cookie sheets if necessary . . . for crisp potatoes they need lots of space, so don't crowd! Spray foil with non-stick spray.

  • Step 3: Drain potatoes and pat dry with paper towels. Return potatoes to (dry) bowl and drizzle with oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with paprika, salt, cinnamon and brown sugar; toss to coat.

  • Step 4: Place on prepared cookie sheets; again, DO NOT CROWD, use two sheets if necessary!

  • Step 5: Roast, turning the potatoes every 10 minutes, until potatoes are browned and tender, 15-20 minutes. If using two cookie sheets, alternate the pans after 10 minutes!
