Ingredients

  • 3 medium Yukon gold potatoes
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425F.
  • Clean and rinse your potatoes.
  • Leave the skins on and chop them thinly, approximately ¼" by ¼" thick.
  • Arrange your chopped potatoes onto a cookie tray lined with parchment paper and ensure that none of the potatoes overlap. Be sure not to overload your tray. For three potatoes and depending on the size of your tray, it is probably best to cook them in two batches.
  • Use an oil mister or spray oil to cover the chopped potatoes in olive oil and use sea salt and fresh ground pepper to sprinkle on top.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, until they appear golden brown and crispy.
  • Enjoy your vegan french fries simply like that or get some ketchup, vegan gravy or sriacha vegan mayonnaise to dip them into.
