  • Total Time: 26 minutes
  • Yield: 3 servings 1x

Description

Crispy, golden parsnip fries made in the air fryer for a quick vegan, Whole30, and Paleo-friendly snack or side dish with minimal oil and maximal flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium parsnips, peeled and cut into fry-sized sticks
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary or chili flakes

  • Instructions

    1. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 2–3 minutes.

    2. Pat dry the parsnip sticks with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

    3. In a large bowl, toss parsnip sticks with olive oil, sea salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper until evenly coated.

    4. Arrange the parsnip sticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding.

    5. Cook for 14–16 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even crisping.

    6. If desired, increase temperature to 400°F and cook 2 additional minutes for extra crispiness.

    7. Remove fries and sprinkle with additional salt or seasonings while hot.

    8. Serve immediately with your favorite compliant dip or sauce.
