Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp peanut vegetable, canola or any other neutral-flavored oil
  • 1 tsp Sriracha
  • 1 large butternut squash peeled, seeded and cut into evenly-sized steak fries
  • salt to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Whisk together oil and sriracha in a large bowl. Transfer butternut squash fries to bowl and toss to coat. (It’s messy, but use your hands—it works best!) Pour fries onto a rimmed baking sheet and arrange in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt.
  3. Bake for 20 minutes, then carefully flip fries over using tongs or a spatula. Sprinkle with additional salt and bake for 20 minutes more or until tender and browned on edges.

Notes

  • If you're not a fan of sriracha, you can use this same method with cinnamon, chipotle chili powder, Chinese 5 spice powder, smoked paprika, curry powder, or pumpkin pie spice. So many possibilities!
