Universally loved (at least in my home 😉) and honestly so easy to make!! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside! Perfect side dish to so many meals, or make it the star and load them down with all kinds of toppings!
- 2-3 lbs potatoes, cut into fry strips
- 2 T olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp pepper
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
HOW TO MAKE OVEN BAKED FRENCH FRIES
1. Preheat oven to 450° F
2. Scrub potatoes, then cut into french fry strips
3. Put in large bowl or container of ice water for 30 minutes - 1 hour.
4. Remove from water and thoroughly dry potato strips
5. Pile on baking sheet, then drizzle with olive oil. Add seasonings, then toss with hands to coat fries. Spread out into a single layer. (use 2 baking sheets if needed)
6. Bake for 35 minutes.
TIPS
-Don't skip on soaking in water! It helps make the fries nice and crispy!!
-Cut the potatoes into shoestring, steak fries, wedges, or whatever your family prefers! (just be aware different thicknesses will alter the cook time)
-Alter the seasonings for a little less heat - or a little more 🤷
-Trade out for sweet potatoes! 😋 These would be amazing with this recipe, or with some cinnamon/sugar!
