baked fries

These incredibly crispy, thick cut, oven baked steak fries are seasoned to perfection with steak seasoning for maximum flavor in every bite! 

Oven Baked Steak Fries

russet potatoes (0.60)

Tbsp cooking oil (0.04)

Tbsp paprika (0.15)

Tbsp steak seasoning (0.15)

Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Wash the potatoes well. Cut each potato into wedges, approximately 12 wedges per potato.  (Quarter the potato lengthwise, then slice each quarter into three wedges.)

Add the potato wedges to a bowl with the cooking oil, paprika, and steak seasoning. Toss the potato wedges until they are well coated.

Spread the seasoned potato wedges out over a parchment lined baking sheet, making sure they&#039;re in a single layer. Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until they are well browned and crispy. Flip the steak fries once, after about 20 minutes of baking.

Serve immediately.

These incredibly crispy, thick cut, oven baked steak fries are seasoned to perfection with steak seasoning for maximum flavor in every bite!

The BEST way to make perfect french fries that are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and oil-free! Simple ingredients, BIG flavor, super versatile!

Crispy Cajun Baked Fries (Oil-Free!)

potatoes

Water

salt

½ tsp smoked paprika

garlic powder

tsp dried oregano ((or sub fresh, minced))

tsp dried thyme ((or sub fresh, minced))

tsp sea salt

tsp black pepper

cayenne pepper ((omit for less heat))

Ketchup

No-Honey Mustard Sauce

Heat oven to 425 degrees F (218 C) and use the convection setting if you have it. This will allow the fries to become more crispy on the edges and cook faster. If you don’t have a convection setting, no worries. You’ll just bake for slightly longer. Convection simply speeds up the process.

Line 1 large or 2 small baking sheet(s) with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside (this is important or the fries will stick). (See notes for best way to cook large batches of fries.)

Wash and scrub your potatoes clean but leave the skin on. Add to a large saucepan or pot and cover with water by 1 inch. Add a pinch of salt.

Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until a knife slides in easily and is easily removed — ~25-35 minutes depending on the size of your potatoes. You don’t want them to be cracking or falling apart, but you do want them to be tender and pretty much cooked through. Remove from the water and allow to cool on a cutting board (~5-10 minutes).

Note: At this point you could store your boiled potatoes (uncovered) in the fridge for up to 3-4 days and then slice and bake. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.

While potatoes are cooking, prepare your spice blend by adding all spices to a small mixing bowl and stirring to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt to taste, cayenne for heat, herbs to taste, smoked paprika for smokiness, or garlic powder for garlic flavor. Set aside. (Leftovers will keep sealed at room temperature for up to 3 months).

Once cooled to the touch, carefully slice potatoes into even, small wedges or strips. If the fries break apart in places, that’s okay and normal. These are secretly my favorite pieces because they get extra crispy when baked. Just try to handle gently to prevent much breaking. Using a sharp knife and handling gently is key here.

Transfer to the lined baking sheet(s) and sprinkle on the Cajun spice blend. Then lift one side of the parchment paper at a time to gently toss the potatoes, coating them with spices. This allows for more gentle handling than hand tossing.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping / tossing at the 15-minute mark to ensure even cooking. Turning the pan around can also help them cook more evenly. You’re looking for the fries to be golden brown and crispy on the edges. Keep baking until you achieve desired results!

Serve immediately. If desired, sprinkle with a bit more salt and pepper for added flavor. These fries are delicious on their own, but are also elevated with ketchup or our No-Honey Mustard Sauce.

Best when fresh, though leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator up to 2-3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in a 375 degree F (190C) oven. In our experience, these are not freezer friendly (unless the boiled, cut, and seasoned fries are frozen before baking — when cooked from frozen cook time will need to be increased).

Full Recipe: https://minimalistbaker.com/crispy-cajun-baked-fries-oil-free/

Cajun food originated in southern Louisiana. And cajun seasoning typically includes spices such as paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, cayenne, and herbs such as thyme and/or oregano. Our blend strays a bit from the traditional, skipping the onion powder and opting for smoked paprika for a more smoky flavor.

Loved these fries! They came out so crunchy and delicious 😋 I was so impressed that I could make fries in the oven, they are way better than fried French fries!

OMG these are the best fries! So simple, definitely keep the skin on the potatoes it adds to the wonderful flavor. I paired these with a Philly cheese steak ring last night and doubled the recipe. This morning they were gone and my kids said they were the best fries they've ever had lol! Thanks for the recipe

These Healthy Copycat Philly Crab Fries with Cheese are inspired by one of my favorite Philly area stadium snacks. So perfectly crispy and flavored just right with old bay seasoning,  these homemade fries are baked in the oven or made in the air fryer and served with my easy to freeze cheese sauce...so you can make them whenever the mood strikes! 

Healthy CopyCat Philly Crab Fries {Air Fryer | Oven}

Small Russet Potatoes

Old Bay Seasoning

Avocado or Olive Oil

Salt

Tbsp vegan butter

almond milk

white cheddar cheese or Monterey jack

salt,

Wash and peel potatoes, then dry so they are easier to handle.  

Slice each potato in half the long way, lay the cut side flat on the cutting surface and cut into 1/2-inch to 1/4-inch slices. Stack these slices and cut them into the same width sticks to make french fries. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.

Put the cut potatoes in a large bowl and cover with cool water. Soak for at least 20 minutes or up to an hour. This step gets rid of excess starch, resulting in fluffier and crispier fries. Alternatively, you can place fries in a pot. Cover with cold water and add about 1 tsp salt. Bring the potatoes to a boil for 5 minutes. Drain the water.  If I am short on time, I skip these steps and the fries are just a little less crispy.  No big deal. 

Drain and dry potatoes really well. Sometimes I use a salad spinner, but I always use thick paper towels or clean kitchen towels and really wipe them down.  A dry fry is a crispy fry!

Place fries on a parchment lined baking sheet or in the basket of your air fryer. Instead of coating my fries with olive oil, I prefer to use an olive oil sprayer so the oil doesn’t weigh the fries down. Spray fries well with olive oil spray, then season fries liberally with salt &#8211; I like a fine salt because it sticks better.  

Air Fryer: Cook in small batches on 390/400 for 14-16 minutes, flipping or or shaking them halfway through. 

Oven:  bake on 450 for 20 minutes, then flip and finish cooking for about 10 minutes. 

After fries are finished cooking, immediately toss with old bay seasoning and additional salt (if desired).  Start with a little of the seasoning, then add more as you wish. You can also add the seasoning before cooking, but I like to do it after as my kids aren’t fans (yet, lol!) and I can control the level of seasoning better. 

In your skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk together.

Slowly whisk in 1 1/2 cups of almond milk, and continue to whisk until the mixture comes to a boil and begins to thicken. Once thickened, remove sauce from heat and stir in cheese until fully melted, adding salt to taste. If you need to thin it out, add in some additional milk in 1/4 cup increments.

You can sprinkle some old bay into your cheese sauce if you want!

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a large cookie sheet or two small cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Peel and slice the carrots into sticks about a half inch wide. This vegetable peeler does a great job.

Place the carrot fries on the cookie sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Use your hands to toss the carrots to coat them with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

lb yukon gold potato

milk

heavy cream

garlic, crushed

unsalted butter, cubed, cold

These are the BEST oven baked French fries that taste just like a restaurant! They come out crispy and perfectly seasoned: no need for frying.

Ultimate Baked French Fries (So Crispy!)

russet potatoes (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds)*

smoked paprika

Old Bay seasoning (purchased or homemade)

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Evenly space the oven racks to ensure even cooking.

Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into fries

(Watch this video or use a fry cutter.) Wash the potatoes, leaving the skins on. Slice off the ends of each potato, then slice off part of the side to make a base. Place the potato half cut side down and cut off a 3/8-inch slice, then lay the slice on its side and cut it into several long strips. Repeat until all potatoes have been cut into fries. The pieces can be uneven, but aim for as uniform of thickness as possible. See the video for full instructions!

Soak in cold water (10 minutes)

Place the cut fries into a medium bowl and rinse with cold water until water is clear. Then fill the bowl with cold water and allow to rest for 10 minutes (while the oven preheats). Then drain the potatoes and dry them thoroughly with a clean dish towel.

Season the fries

Add the fries to a dry bowl and toss them with the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, Old Bay, black pepper, and kosher salt. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the fries in straight lines on the paper, placing them as far apart as possible.

Bake

Bake the fries for 20 minutes. Take them out of the oven and carefully flip each fry. Return to oven (reversing the pans on top and bottom racks). Bake additional 8 to 10 minutes until they are crisp and golden brown, watching carefully as the bake time depends on the fry thickness and your oven. (If the majority of the fries seem soft, continue to bake a few more minutes.)

Taste and add a few more pinches salt if desired. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
