Baked Potato Wedges

 

I prefer french fries over wedges, because I like how fries get crispy. These wedges however, have a nice crispy outside with some flavor and are soft on the inside. 

Another reason I really like these wedges, is that they are baked and not fried. Sometimes it is hard to get a good crunch from a baked french fry, but these have it.

The original recipe used 1 teaspoon of salt in the seasoning mix, but I left it out to reduce the sodium content. 

Baked Potato Wedges

Ingredients:

• 4 tablespoons canola oil
• 6 russet potatoes
• 6 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 450º F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with oil.
2. Cut each potato in half lengthwise into 8 wedges.
3. In a sealable bag, combine the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and black pepper. Add in a few potato wedges at a time and shake to coat well. Remove the potatoes from the bag and place on the prepared baking sheet. Continue until all of the potatoes wedges have been coated and are on the baking sheet.
4. Bake for 20 minutes and then flip the potatoes over onto the other side and bake for an additional 20 minutes.

Enjoy!!!
