Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and dry them with a clean kitchen towel. Leave the skin on for extra crunch and nutrition.
Step 3
Using a waffle cutter or mandolin slicer with a waffle blade, slice the potatoes about 1/4 inch thick. To create the waffle shape, rotate the potato 90 degrees between each slice.
Step 4
Place the potato slices in a large bowl and add the olive oil. Toss well to ensure all the slices are coated evenly.
Step 5
Add salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss the fries again to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Step 6
Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping for even baking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, flip the slices over, and bake for another 15 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
Step 8
Remove the waffle fries from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy the crispy texture and flavorful taste of homemade Chick-fil-A style waffle fries.
