Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 pounds Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, washed and cut into cubes or wedges
Seasonings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder (natural)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano (natural)
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Crust Coating
- 1/2 cup plant-based Parmesan (plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and peel the potatoes if desired. Cut them into evenly sized cubes or wedges to ensure uniform cooking. Pat the pieces dry thoroughly to help the crust adhere better and minimize steaming during baking.
- Toss with Olive Oil and Seasonings: Place the potato pieces in a large bowl. Drizzle generously with olive oil. Add garlic powder (natural), onion powder (natural), dried oregano (natural), salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat each potato piece evenly with the oil and spices.
- Coat with Plant-Based Parmesan (plant-based) and Natural Gelling Agent: Sprinkle the plant-based Parmesan (plant-based) and natural gelling agent evenly over the seasoned potatoes. Toss gently to create an even coating that will form a crunchy crust when baked.
- Bake to Golden Perfection: Arrange the coated potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 30 to 40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through baking to ensure all sides become crispy and golden brown.
- Serve Hot and Enjoy: Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve immediately to best enjoy the crunchy texture and flavorful crust.
