    It is almost like sweet potatoes, except they are heartier. I did not have dill so I used a little chili powder and cinnamon sugar. Delicious!

    Need to leave them more than 20 to get them crispy.

    When baking these you will get a crispier product by making sure you don't overcrowd the sheet pan. Use two sheet pans (cookie sheets) if you want to decrease the cooking time.

    1/2 a cup of butter? Is there something else we can use that would make it come out well? Olive oil? Something else? Looking for different veggie things for my toddler but want to set him on the right path for healthier eating.

    you could use egg whites instead of butter to give them a crunchy outside and soft warm inside :)

    Heather, thank you for your tip! Anonymous, I think you would be fine only using 1/4 cup of butter in this recipe. You could also use just 1/4 cup olive oil or canola oil. For an even healthier version, spray the fries with butter flavored cooking spray. Another tip I wanted to share is to place a baking rack (ie: a cooling rack for cookies) on top of the cookie sheet. Then place your fries on top of the rack. This will help the hot air circulate through and help the fries be slightly more crispy on all sides.

    I used olive oil instead of butter and did not have dill, so I used some thyme and rosemary. Delicious!! My kids, 18 months and 4yrs, loved them!! The only thing I disliked was all the cutting, maybe I can figure out how to make that easier.
