Oven Fried Carrots
We all love fries and onion rings but lately there have been a lot of other fried vegetables to make for very tasty appetizers, like fried pickles, fried asparagus, and even fried avocado! I had a bag of carrot chips that I wanted to do something fun with and thought they were the perfect shape for picking up some yummy dip but I wanted to kick them up a notch. I ended up going along with the fried vegetable trend and decided on Oven Fried Carrots!
These aren’t just any old oven fried carrots, they have delicious garlic and rosemary in the breading to give them incredible flavor. I made them to dip in my Green Goddess Dip, and they were good with it but I ate a bunch of them without any dip. The carrot was slightly sweet from baking and the breading was a savory flavor that worked so well. I can’t wait to make these again!

These look like the perfect snack! I’ve got a bag of carrot chips in the fridge waiting to used… this is my answer!
Thanks Becca!
This may be a dumb question but, what are carrot chips?
There are no dumb questions. 🙂 They’re carrots that have been cut into the shape of a chip.
Just thinly sliced carrots. You can buy them at the store pre-sliced but I’m guessing those would be too thick anyways.
I love this! Might just add this to my Easter meal, pinning!
Thanks Kristen! I hope you liked them. 🙂
