Oven-Baked Sesame Fries
Report
These Oven-Baked Sesame Fries are sprinkled with a healthy amount of sesame seeds before they bake to get them nice and golden brown! This combination is simply divine as they complement each other in flavor, texture, and nutrition.

Ingredients
- 1 pound of russet or Yukon gold potatoes unpeeled, cut into wedges
- 1 Tablespoon of medium-high heat oil avocado, grape seed, sunflower, etc.
- 2 Tablespoons of sesame seeds
- 1 Tablespoon of potato starch optional, but makes fries extra crispy
- 1 Tablespoon of nutritional yeast optional
- Generous pinch of salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil metal baking sheet, or cover with parchment paper. Toss potatoes in all ingredients until coated, if seeds don't stick, drizzle with a bit more oil.
- Spread potatoes on the baking sheet in an even layer (the more room between the wedges the better) and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until potatoes are golden brown and crispy. Serve immediately with condiments of choice.

Notes
- Make sure that the potato wedges are uniform in size, so they bake evenly in the oven.
- If the sesame seeds are not sticking to the wedges, add a bit more oil. Make sure you do not add too much, though, or your potatoes will get soggy.
- Place the potatoes evenly spaced in the pan. The more room between the wedges, the better as the hot air can circulate better and make them super crisp. If you have a small pan, you can bake in batches instead.
- The baking time may vary depending on how thick your wedges are. Test if they are baked through by sticking a toothpick into the thickest part of the wedge. If it pierces through easily, you can take them off the oven.
- Let the baked fries rest on the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a serving plate.
- You can add more flavor to your fries by adding your preferred herbs and spices. Paprika, chili powder, garlic or onion powder, and parsley are some good choices.
