Welcome fall! Here is a simple and delicious recipe for Butternut Squash Fries. I am a sucker for anything fries. This recipe is great with several dipping sauces too! Be creative and have fun.
This recipe is also great for last-minute dinner emergencies. If you need a side dish for a potluck or party, this would be a perfect go-to.
Ingredients:
- 1 small (1-2 lb) butternut squash, peeled, de-seeded, and sliced into “fries”
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp. dried basil
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1/8 tsp. cayenne powder
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 450F.
- Place the fries into a bowl with the olive oil. Toss until all the fries are coated. Season with remaining ingredients and mix until combined.
- Pour onto baking tray and evenly spread out so no pieces overlap. Place into oven and bake for 20 minutes. Flip, and continue baking for another 10-20 minutes or until desired crispiness is reached.
