These easy Halloween snacks turn simple yam fries into adorable jack o’ lanterns with a cookie cutter. The yams bake until tender with lightly crisped edges and a naturally sweet and salty flavor, making them a fun choice for Halloween parties or snacking.
Brush shapes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes.
Notes
Cutting the shapes: Choose a cookie cutter that fits the size of your yam slices so the jack-o’-lantern shapes are easier to cut out.
Check for doneness: The fries are ready when they’re tender and the edges are lightly crisped. Thicker pieces may need extra time, so check before removing them from the oven.
