Ingredients

  • 1 large butternut squash
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil

Instructions

  • Wash the squash well. Slice the stem and the base off of the squash, and then slice it again, separating the neck and the base. Use a large vegetable peeler to peel the tough skin. Slice the base of the squash in half and spoon out the seeds.
  • To cut the fries, slice the butternut squash into large sheets with a chef's knife. Then use a crinkle cutter on all sides of each fry to slice into zig zags. Save and freeze the scraps to make soup!
  • Add the fries to a bowl and top with avocado oil, and seasonings. Toss to coat.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 F and add the butternut squash zig-zags to the basket. Cook for 10 minutes, remove the basket, and toss to rotate the butternut squash. Cook for another 8-10 minutes, or until lightly crisp and soft.
  • Serve with a dip of your choice as a side for a fall meal!
