How to Make Carrot Fries
Prepare Carrots
Slice up your carrots into sticks.
Season and Bake
Toss the carrot sticks with olive oil, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Bake for 25–30 minutes.
Make Tahini Ranch Dip
While the carrots bake, prepare the tahini ranch dip. Combine tahini, lemon juice, dried dill, fresh chives, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve and Enjoy
Once the carrot fries are done, remove them from the oven and serve hot with the tahini ranch dip.
Recipe Tips for Carrot Fries
Use the Air Fryer: You can make your carrot fries in the air fryer for a speedy snack! Just cook at 400f for 20 minutes. Just make sure not to overcrowd the baking tray otherwise your fries will turn out soggy.
Add an extra burst of flavour: Add vegan parmesan cheese on the top after removing them from the oven for a cheesy twist.
Jazz them up! Experiment with herbs and spices for an extra depth of flavour. Add nutritional cheese while seasoning these fires for a cheesy and umami flavour.
Make them oil-free: skip olive oil from the ingredients list; they will still turn out delicious.
