Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the kohlrabi and slice off both ends to create a stable base.
Using a mandoline slicer with a wavy blade, carefully slice the kohlrabi into thin, waffle-shaped slices by rotating the kohlrabi 90 degrees after each slice.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, whisking until well mixed.
Add the kohlrabi slices to the bowl and toss them well to ensure each slice is coated evenly with the seasoned oil mixture.
Spread the kohlrabi waffle slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then carefully flip each slice with a spatula.
Continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to help them crisp up further.
Optional: Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Serve warm and enjoy your Keto Waffle Fries!
