Instructions:
- Preheat
Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. - Season
Toss 4 large carrot sticks with 1 tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp paprika, ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper, and optional 1 tbsp cornstarch for extra crispiness. - Arrange
Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet without overlapping. - Bake
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy on the edges. - Serve
Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with hummus, vegan aioli, or ketchup.
Notes:
- Cornstarch is the secret to crispier edges — it draws out moisture and crisps up in the oven.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan — a single layer with space between fries is key for crispiness.
Storage:
- Best eaten fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and re-crisped in a hot oven or air fryer for 5 minutes.
Swaps:
- Try smoked paprika or cumin for a different flavor profile.
- Add a pinch of cayenne for heat.
Tips:
- Cut carrot sticks to a uniform size so they cook evenly.
- An air fryer works beautifully at 200°C (390°F) for 12–15 minutes.
