Ingredients
- 2 large Turnips or Rutabagas
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Peel the turnips or rutabagas and cut them into fry-shaped sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the turnip or rutabaga fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until they are evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
Remove the fries from the oven, and immediately sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese while they're still hot. The cheese will melt over the fries.
Step 6
Top the cheese-covered fries with crumbled bacon and sliced green onions.
Step 7
Serve the Keto Bacon Cheese Fries hot with a side of sour cream if desired. Enjoy immediately for best texture.
