Rinse/soak them first

I fry them and then throw them on a drip pan in the over at 400 for like 5-10 minutes gotta watch them they can turn black quick

It's pretty hard to do because of the moisture content in a sweet potato, but here are some techniques to improve the outcome...

1. High Heat 400-425
2. Even, thin, uniform slices 1/4" thick is what I like
3. Whisk an egg white and coat the cut fries in the egg white
4. Spread them out so they are not touching in a single layer on a rack above a sheet pan
5. Bake until crispy and delicious! 20-25 mins
6. You can also try using the convection setting on your oven if you have that.

Will try out this method actually and make sure to soak the potatoes beforehand as well.
Thanks everyone for your input!

Mine always stick to the pan too (well, the foil I put on the pan). Drives me nuts. I'll have to stop crowding the pan and put them higher in the oven I guess...
