Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Chickpea flour
- 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Cut each potato into wedges by first halving them lengthwise, then cutting each half into 4-6 wedges depending on size.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well with a spoon.
Step 4
Add the olive oil and water to the dry mixture and stir to create a smooth batter.
Step 5
Add the potato wedges to the batter, tossing them gently to ensure each wedge is evenly coated with the mixture.
Step 6
Arrange the coated wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not touching each other to ensure even crispiness.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then carefully turn each wedge over using tongs or a spatula. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Step 8
Once the wedges are done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy these wedges on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
