Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Chickpea flour
- 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Cut each potato into wedges by first halving them lengthwise, then cutting each half into 4-6 wedges depending on size.
In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well with a spoon.
Add the olive oil and water to the dry mixture and stir to create a smooth batter.
Add the potato wedges to the batter, tossing them gently to ensure each wedge is evenly coated with the mixture.
Arrange the coated wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not touching each other to ensure even crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then carefully turn each wedge over using tongs or a spatula. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Once the wedges are done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy these wedges on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
