2 lbs butternut squash
2 tsp olive oil
salt, pepper and dry seasonings of choice I use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika
sweet potato extract or flavoring, optional You can also use up to 1 tsp of vanilla extract instead of sweet potato extract

Preheat an oven to 425 degrees. Line and lightly grease a large baking sheet. Thoroughly peel the squash. Cut the squash into "fry size" sticks. (I cut mine into 2 inch long by 1/3 inch thick sticks) Place the squash on a paper towel and pat dry with another paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Place the squash into a medium bowl. Drizzle the oil over the squash and toss to coat. Add the salt, pepper, dry seasonings and extract (if using) and toss until all the squash is lightly coated. Place the squash in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Leave space between each fry. Bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes or until the squash has browned a little and is crusty on the edges but still soft. Once cooked, remove from the oven and serve immediately.
