Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 120 grams Breadcrumbs (whole wheat or regular)
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 large Egg whites
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly coat the parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray.
Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into even 1/4-inch thick sticks to resemble classic fries.
In a large bowl, mix the flour, breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined.
In a separate shallow bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy.
Dip each potato stick into the egg whites, letting any excess drip off, and then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres.
Place the breaded potato sticks on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each fry to ensure even airflow during baking.
Lightly spray the tops of the fries with nonstick cooking spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove from the oven and let the fries cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve with your favorite low-fat dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own!
