Ingredients
- 5 medium Carrots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Peel the carrots and cut them into thin strips, similar in size to classic French fries.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the carrot strips with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure all the carrot pieces are evenly coated.
Step 4
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the seasoned carrots and toss again until evenly covered. The cornstarch helps to achieve a crispy texture.
Step 5
Spread the carrot fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don't overlap for even baking.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning the fries halfway through baking, until they are golden brown and crispy at the edges.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet. This will help them crisp up further.
Step 8
Serve the carrot fries warm as a nutritious snack or side dish. Enjoy with your favorite sugar-free dipping sauce if desired.
