Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Baked Butternut Squash Fries.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a baking sheet and give it a light spray with olive oil cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, toss your butternut squash strips with a bit more olive oil spray, ensuring they’re evenly coated for that perfect roast.
Step 4
Next, sprinkle on some dried parsley, kosher salt, and ground black pepper, then give everything a good toss again to make sure each piece is bursting with flavor.
Step 5
Now, lay the seasoned squash strips out in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet, making sure they have a little space to breathe.
Step 6
Pop the baking sheet into your preheated oven and let the magic happen for 15 minutes.
Step 7
After that, take a spatula and gently turn the fries over to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 8
Return them to the oven for another 15 minutes, or until they’re tender in the center and have developed a delightful crispiness on the outside.
Step 9
Enjoy the delicious aroma filling your kitchen as you await your tasty butternut squash fries!.
