Ingredients

Instructions

  • Watch the video in the post for visual instructions.
    Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Peel the carrots and slice them into sticks, about 1 1/2 cm thick. I used a crinkle-cut knife, but you can use a regular knife.
  • Add the carrot sticks to a large bowl along with all the remaining ingredients and toss to combine and coat the carrots well. Then, transfer them to the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake for approximately 30 minutes, flipping halfway. However, I recommend checking on them at 25 minutes as the size/thickness of the sticks and your particular oven may mean they take slightly less or longer (40 mins).
  • You can optionally sprinkle the baked fries with fresh herbs like parsley. Enjoy with this Yum Yum Sauce!

Notes

  • Cornstarch: You can use arrowroot flour instead. Potato starch or tapioca flour will probably work too.
  • Spices: Feel free to add more spices like onion powder or use cayenne pepper for some heat. You can also sprinkle the baked fries with this homemade vegan Parmesan cheese.
  • For Air fryer carrots: Air fry at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway through. The Air fryer carrot fries are crispier than the oven-baked fries.
