Home Made Keto French fries

Ingredients:

• 2 large zucchinis or 1 large eggplant (opt for zucchini if following a keto diet)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Optional: 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary or thyme for added flavor

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
2. Prepare Vegetables:
   • For Zucchini: Rinse and slice the zucchinis into thin strips resembling French fries.
   • For Eggplant: Rinse and slice the eggplant into thin strips.
3. Season: Toss the veggie strips in a large bowl with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until each piece is well-coated.
4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Lay the strips out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to promote crisping.
5. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the strips halfway through. Continue baking until they are golden brown and crispy.
6. Cool: Take them out of the oven and allow them to cool slightly. They will become even crisper as they cool down.
7. Serve: Enjoy your keto-friendly French fries with a dipping sauce or as a tasty side dish.
