My two big kids are not fans of potatoes. Except for french fries. They can go for some french fries. So I decided to whip up a healthier batch at home and all of the kids love them. It doesn’t get much easier than this recipe.
1. Preheat oven to 450F.
2. Wash and cut potatoes into small wedges or fries. {A SIMPLE Tip: I found an apple slicer worked great for this step. I just ended up slicing the “core” piece once lengthwise so the fries would be closer to the size of the other pieces.}
3. Arrange the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and rosemary to taste. Feel free to play around a bit and add any herbs and spices that sound great to you! I don’t have a set amount I use–I just give a good sprinkle of everything. {I often add a bit more salt after they’re done baking}
4. Bake about 35 minutes, stirring once partway through, until golden brown.
5. Enjoy!
Easy as that. My kids even finished their salmon and salad in order to have seconds of these yummy fries!
Potatoes are one of my favorites, and I love simple recipes like this.
I haven’t been wanting to turn on my oven in the heat, but this is a family favorite that I will definitely make once the weather cools down a bit!
These fries look so awesome and more enticing than fast food french fries! Thanks for the recipe.
These fries look so Yummy and easy. I must try this for my family.
This look delicious and so easy to make.
Great top about using an Apple slicer! I would never think of that.
I love these oven roasted potatoes! I grew up eating potatoes this way, both my mom and grandmother made them! 🙂
I love so good old oven roasted fries, I love putting sea salt and garlic on mine, so yummy.
These look good and I have made these many times. Its amazing how much better these taste than any nagged variety. I make ours in the toaster oven. Try sprinkling parmsean cheese on them they are felicious!
These look so yummy. I can’t wait to try them out. My kiddos loves fries too, but these look so much better for you.
