These spicy turmeric pumpkin fries are unbelievably delicious and a great switch from basic potatoes. Coated in savory spices and baked in the oven until golden brown, they serve as tasty appetizers, game-day treats, or weeknight pick-me-ups after a long day at work or caring for the kiddos.
Ingredients
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Slice the pumpkin into thin pieces. Place the pumpkin slices in a dark-colored bowl and toss with turmeric, salt, and Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil.
Line a tray with parchment paper. Place the fries onto the parchment paper in a single layer, leaving room in-between each fry.
Bake for 25 minutes or until cooked through and crispy.
Serve with Primal Kitchen Chipotle Lime Mayo for dipping.

If you're looking for an out-of-the-box swap for regular french fries, these sassy squash fries are a perfect alternative. You get all the vitamins and minerals in pumpkin, plus the crispy, golden-brown exterior and soft insides of a classic steak fry. It's a win-win! Plus, you get the cozy flavors of fall, which is ultra-satisfying when paired with crock pot chicken or a hearty stew.
These mouthwatering fries are the perfect balance of salty and savory, with added flavor that smacks of fall and harvest foods. Serve this tasty snack as an amazing appetizer, a fun tailgating snack, or a quick pick-me-up after your workday is done. While our Spicy Pumpkin Fries are delicious alone, they're even better served with a side of our zesty Chipotle Lime Mayo for dipping. Rich, creamy, and packed with contrasting bright and smoky flavors, this dairy-free mayo is made with honest ingredients like avocado oil for real, delicious flavor.
