Chinese Five-Spice Air Fryer Butternut Squash Fries image

These 'fries' made with Chinese five-spice powder are sweet and spicy, and they're a fiber-full, lower-carb alternative to French fries. Made in the air fryer, they're less messy and can cook up while the rest of your meal is in the making.

I love that this recipe uses an air fryer. It's so much healthier than deep-frying.

These fries were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some additional herbs and spices next time.

I was surprised at how easy these fries were to make. I'm not a very experienced cook, but I was able to follow the recipe and make them perfectly.

These fries were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try using less of the Chinese five-spice seasoning next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my fries didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try cooking them for a few minutes longer next time.

These butternut squash fries were a hit at my dinner party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a delicious blend of spices. The air fryer made them so easy to cook, and I didn't have to worry about them getting greasy.
