Description

These butternut squash fries are baked in the oven until browned and crisp for a tasty, low-carb alternative to regular fries or sweet potato fries.

Ingredients

1 (2 pound) butternut squash, halved and seeded
salt to taste

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2 Use a sharp knife to carefully cut away the peel from the squash. Cut the squash into sticks, about 1/3 inch thick.
3 Blot any moisture from the butternut squash fries with paper towels, then arrange squash pieces on a baking sheet. Season with salt.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until brown and crisp on the edges, about 20 minutes, turning once.
