Baked french fries are easy to make in just a few easy steps.
- Clean potatoes. I like russet potatoes for French fries best, but any potato will work.
- Cut potatoes in half inch slices the long way.
- Cut the slices into half inch sticks.
- If you have the time, a pro tip is to boil the potatoes for 5-7 minutes after you cut into French fries before you bake.
- Pour seasoning into a bowel. (I used 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon onion powder for a no salt version. You could use any seasoning blend you want. Just salt and pepper works great too.)
- You can bake with or without cooking oil. If using cooking oil, add 1-2 tablespoons to the seasoning mix.
- Toss cut potatoes in seasoning mix and dump onto a baking sheet into a flat layer.
- Bake in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.
