I like them without the ketchup because they have such a great flavor on their own. Great healthy idea for dessert! Thanks!

I just found this recipe and I had to try it. I have been working on eating healthier. I did toss the "fries" in about a tbsp of macademia nut oil before placing on a parchment lined pan. I did use the kosher salt. These were absolutely fabulous. These will definitely be my favorite way to eat butternut squash from now on and I need never eat greasy potato fries again. Thanks for posting.

I had a pretty small butternut squash (about 9 oz. seeded) and I decided to use it to make these "fries" ... I am SO glad I did!! I don't know why anyone would choose to eat grease-laden potato fries when this exists as an option. I tossed the squash "sticks" in kosher salt and a bit of chili powder, and baked for about 45 minutes. I didn't flip it, either, but it didn't seem to make any difference; they were FANTASTIC. Well worth the pain of cutting through a raw winter squash. Thanks for posting!
