Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the carrots and cut them into long, thin strips resembling fries, about 1/4-inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and dried parsley.
Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.
Spread the carrots out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching each other to allow even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the carrots are crispy and have a nice golden brown color. Flip them halfway through the baking time for even crispiness.
Remove the carrot fries from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your low sodium crispy baked carrot fries as a healthy side or snack.
