Butternut Squash Fries
Butternut squash fries are a cozy alternative to French fries. Roasted with olive oil, garlic, and sage, they're crisp on the edges, tender inside, and perfect for fall dinners, game day snacks, or holiday side dishes.
Ingredients
- 1 medium butternut squash about 2 pounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground sage
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper then set aside.
- Peel the butternut squash, cut it in half, and remove the seeds.
