- After adding the potato wedges, close the bag. Shake to distribute the seasoning evenly over the potatoes.

Notes
Sweet Potatoes: Though Yukon gold and red potatoes are my favorites, you can truly use any sort of potato for this dish. However, if that's what you have on hand, russets also work well.
Storage: For up to three days, keep any leftover baked potato wedges in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Reheat them for a further ten minutes at 400oF on a baking sheet or in an air fryer.
