BAKED BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper and spray paper with cooking spray, or line with silicone baking mat.
• Cut squash widthwise into 1-inch slices. Cut slices into thin strips to look like French fries; place on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake about 50 minutes, turning over halfway through baking, until fries are deep golden brown and mostly crispy. Serve warm.

BAKE-TASTIC BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Peel squash with a vegetable peeler. Slice the ends off the squash, and then cut it in half width-wise. Cut the round bottom piece in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
• Using a crinkle cutter or a knife, carefully cut squash into spears or French-fry shapes. Thoroughly blot moisture away with paper towels, and sprinkle evenly with salt.
• Spray a broiler pan, a baking rack placed over a baking sheet, or a baking sheet with nonstick spray, and then place spears flat on it.
• Bake in the oven 20 minutes, and then carefully flip spears. Continue to bake until tender on the inside and crispy on the outside, about 20 minutes longer.
• Serve with ketchup for dipping, if using. Enjoy!
