Oven Baked French Fries

These go fast, so make much much more than you imagine your children could ever eat.

We’ve made these with every kind of potato–purple, fingerling, russet, new, red, you name it.  Each type has a slightly different baking time though, so you might want to bake them separately if you’re doing different types together.

Ingredients:

• Potatoes
• Peanut Oil (substitute canola if allergies are an issue)
• Salt

To do:

• Preheat oven to 400
• Slice potatoes into fry-like shapes and put into a large bowl
• Coat with oil and toss to make sure all the potatoes are covered
• Put on baking sheet in a single row, sprinkle with salt.

Bake at 400 for 20 minutes, or until crispy and just brown. Check after 15 minutes, particularly if your fries are sliced thin.
