Baked Pumpkin Fries
If you like sweet potato fries you will love these pumpkin fries! The small pumpkins (ones marked "for pumpkin pie") in the produce department work best because they're sweeter and less stringy, but you can use a larger jack-o-lantern pumpkin, too.
Ingredients
- 1 small pumpkin pie pumpkin
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ground cinnamon, optional
Instructions
- Slice raw pumpkin flesh into thick fry slices and remove the skin (because of the high water content of pumpkin, they will shrink a lot when baked so make sure that you cut them bigger than you want them to end up when they are finished).
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Place the pumpkin fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the fries generously with olive oil. Bake for 20 minutes or the until edges are lightly browned and the fries are crispy.
- Dust the fries with ground cinnamon, if desired. Dip in ketchup or your favorite sauce. (I like honey mustard sauce).
