Oktoberfest Beer Sweet Potato Fries with Spiced Balsamic Dipping Sauce

4 whole sweet potatoes sliced into fries

1 bottle Oktoberfest beer

1 T. pumpkin pie spice

1 T. brown sugar

2 T. olive oil

¼ cup ketchup

2 T. honey infused balsamic vinegar

1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

1 T. honey

In a bowl, combine the beer, brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice.  Next put the sweet potato fries into the beer solution, and allow them to soak for at least an hour in it.  Preheat your oven to 350.  After the fries have soaked in the beer solution, on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet, spread the fries over it in a single layer. Drizzle the olive oil over the fries. Bake for about 20 minutes. Spiced Balsamic Dipping Sauce:  In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, vinegar, honey and pumpkin pie spice.  Give it a little taste and adjust if needed. If too sweet add a little more balsamic, if too spiced, add a little honey. It is what you like, use your judgment.  Take the fries out the oven, serve them up with the sauce and ENJOY!
