How to Make Healthy Homemade French Fries

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash and thoroughly dry 2 pounds of russet potatoes. Cut the potatoes into even-sized wedges (about ½ inch thick).
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of black pepper, ½ teaspoon of paprika, and ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder. Ensure all wedges are evenly coated.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. Baking time may vary depending on your oven and desired crispiness.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your healthy and delicious homemade french fries!
