We made these yesterday for #FoodPrepSunday as our #HealthyCarb this week!

What a treat! You gotta try! They also make an awesome after school snack for the kiddos! Baked Butternut Squash Fries Instruction

Ingredients:

  • One large butternut squash, cut into 1/2″ sticks
  • 1 Tbsp avocado, coconut, or virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper to taste

Clean Food Baked Butternut Squash Fries

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450 f. degrees.

Place the butternut squash sticks into a large bowl.

Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with garlic, paprika, thyme and salt. Evenly coat the butternut squash sticks with the oil and seasoning.

Place the fries evenly in a single layer on two baking sheets lined with parchment paper or foil.

Be sure not to over-crowd the pan, because that will create too much steam, which is often the reason the fries come out soggy when baked.

This is the reason I use two baking sheets instead of one – being super careful to give each fry the space it deserves.

Bake for 20-30 minutes, until tender inside and crispy outside.

Enjoy!
