Baked carrot fries | Carrot fries are quick 15 minutes tasty after school snacks for kids. Healthy and tasty way to make kids eat carrots.
Carrot is one vegetable which comes under top 5 least favorite veggies in my son's list. I usually try to mix it with other veggies, and I hide carrots to make him eat. Most of the time even before tasting I would hear a big no from him. I always wonder how a kid with sweet tooth is a not a fan of a vegetable with mild touch of sweetness.
Few weeks back when my son had a play date, I made sweet potato fries for the kids, and I saw them eating happily. That's when I thought of trying carrot fries. If it works carrot might be the next broccoli for him. Yeah broccoli was another vegetable he never tasted, until baked broccoli was experimented. Now a days it has become one of his frequently wanted vegetable.
In food52, I saw a baked carrot fries recipe with coconut, but I was little doubtful whether my son will eat coconut crisp. I saw a note about coconut , they have mentioned that coconut should a size of panko, so that inspired me to use Panko bread crumbs. I loved the idea of adding the crisp layer to the fries. Now our entire family became addicted to carrot fries.
Carrot fries is a quick recipe. For potato wedges, I would have soaked in water and put it on a towel to dry, but for this, cut the carrots, add the seasoning, and bake, fries are ready. Within 15 minutes fries are ready. Put the seasoning according to your taste, oil and bread crumbs for the crisp; fries are ready

Hey, in convection hw should I use... I never backed nothing.. Should use low rack or high.....
Sorry I have never used convection oven so no idea
can you use an air frier fo these? if so, do you still coat the carrots with the oil>> Thanks,
Sorry I have never used air fryer so no idea
For those asking about air fryer or convection oven baking, follow Vidya's recipe, even the same temperature, but stay close! Start checking for "doneness" at about eight minutes, as less time is often needed due to that air flow around whatever's inside the air fryer or convection overn moved the hot air around more evenly. One good thing - these are carrots, so if they're a little "under done" in the middle, unless you're cooking for someone who's picky about the texture of their food, it doesn't really matter.
