  1. Preheat oven to 450 ̊F (230 ̊C).  Grease baking sheet with vegetable oil.
  2. In a bowl, MIX potatoes with vegetable oil, 1-2 Tsp (5-10 ml) maple syrup, and pinch of sea salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  PLACE potatoes on baking sheet in a single layer.
  3. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, turning after 15 minutes.  Place under broiler for last few minutes of cooking, until desired crispiness is reached.  Monitor closely.  DO NOT OVER COOK!
