Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound small new potatoes
- 0.5 cup chickpea flour
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and chop them into bite-sized pieces, about 1-inch cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the seasoning blend.
Add the chopped potatoes into the bowl with the seasoning blend and drizzle with olive oil. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the seasoning and oil.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer across the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded for even cooking and crisping.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and use a spatula to flip the potatoes, ensuring they crisp up evenly on all sides.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of flavor and freshness.
Serve immediately as a side dish or main meal component, and enjoy your crispy, high-protein seasoned potatoes.
