Butternut Squash Fries
Butternut Squash Fries
Butternut Squash Fries are a flavorful, nutritious twist on traditional fries. Sliced into fry shapes and seasoned with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional spices like paprika or garlic powder, they roast to golden perfection in the oven or air fryer. These fries offer a slightly sweet, nutty flavor with a crisp edge and tender center, ideal for healthy snacking or as a side dish with burgers, wraps, or grain bowls.

- Bake in the preheated oven until brown and crisp on the edges, about 20 minutes, turning once.
