Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Wash and dry all the vegetables. Cut the zucchini, sweet potatoes, and carrots into even-sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and parsley flakes. Mix well.
Add the sliced veggies to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly in the seasoning oil.
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the seasoned veggies and toss again to ensure a light even coating; this will help them crisp up in the oven.
Spread the vegetable fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then turn each fry over using tongs to ensure they bake evenly on all sides.
Continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Once baked, remove from oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets before serving warm.
Serve these sugar-free crispy baked veggie fries with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own as a healthy snack or side dish.
