Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash the potatoes thoroughly, then slice them into waffle shapes using a mandoline slicer with a waffle blade attachment. Rotate the potato 90 degrees after each slice to achieve the classic waffle cut.
Step 3
In a large bowl, mix together the chickpea flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Step 4
Add the sliced potatoes to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the dry mixture.
Step 5
Drizzle the melted coconut oil over the potatoes and toss again until all slices are well-coated.
Step 6
Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even cooking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Step 9
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy the high-protein twist on classic waffle fries!
