Notes
- These carrot fries can be served with ketchup or hot sauce, or a vegan chipotle mayo. Honestly, it's not much different to regular potato fries. The sky is really the limit!
- You can also serve them as a side of a larger, hearty main dish. Next time big holiday feast or family dinner rolls around, why not replace traditional roasted or mashed potatoes with these crispy baked carrot fries?
- The more spices, the merrier! I used nutritional yeast, dried dill, paprika, and garlic salt, but you can add or swap seasonings as desired. For instance, you could add cayenne for some heat, cracked black pepper for some depth, fresh rosemary for the aroma, or lemon salt for the zest!
- This hack works for other veggies, too! You can make delicious zucchini or broccoli stem fries.
