Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and peel them if desired, although the skin contributes additional flavor and nutrition.
Step 3
Using a mandoline slicer with a waffle blade setting, carefully cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick waffle slices. If you do not have a mandoline, you can use a knife to cut evenly thick slices, ensuring the classic waffle shape by turning the potatoes 90 degrees after each slice.
Step 4
Place the waffle-cut potatoes in a large bowl. Add olive oil, sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.
Step 5
Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping to allow for even cooking and maximum crispiness.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet and flip the fries over using a spatula to ensure both sides get crispy and golden brown.
Step 7
Return the fries to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until they reach your desired level of crispiness.
Step 8
Remove the waffle fries from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the vegan waffle fries immediately while hot and crispy. Enjoy them with your favorite vegan dipping sauce or alongside your favorite meal.
