These recipes for the two best dipping sauces for sweet potato fries are both fantastic & easy to make. Each dip is a wonderful combination of 3 simple ingredients & takes only 1 minute to make. Will you go for the spicy ranch or a sweet & savory combination? I suggest whipping up both & get dipping.

Having two homemade dipping sauces that go well with fries makes eating them even more fun and tasty. These dipping sauces go perfectly with my recipe for homemade deep-fried sweet potato fries. They are also a great condiment served with air fryer crinkle fries & gluten-free chicken nuggets.

Theses dips were the best. I made them both for my husband and is friends for college football today since we ordered burgers and sweet potato fries to be delivered. Well I made them twice actually. They ate them both so fast I made a second batch. They were even dipping the pork rinds in them too.
Angela says
Oh, I love pork rinds. I must try these dips with them next time, great idea.
Cate says
These dips are so delicious for sweet potato fries! The maple mustard was by far my favorite.
Tara says
Oh yum! I love these dipping options to pair with the sweet potato fries, especially the maple mustard. So easy too!
Anjali says
Both of these dips were so flavorful and delicious!! I think the Sriracha one was my personal favorite but both of these were so much more fun to use than traditional ketchup for my fries!
Mairead says
These dips are both perfect for serving with sweet potato fries. My personal favorite would be the maple mustard one - my sweet tooth always wins.
Jessie says
Thank you for this one! We love sweet potato fries and these sauces just made them that much better! My favorite was the Siracha Ranch.
Blane says
I made the maple mustard and it was very good. I had extra and I admit I ate the last few bits with a spoon to not go to waste. Yes I did that and I am not ashamed one bit 🙂
