Notes
Not only are air fryer butternut squash fries delicious and easy to make, but they are also a versatile side dish that pairs well with just about anything. Serve them alongside a Juicy Air fryer burger or Air-fried Steak for a satisfying meal. Or enjoy them as a snack dipped in your favorite sauce or aioli. May I recommend serving it with Homemade Chick-Fil-A sauce or Chipotle mayo for a spicy kick?
Store leftovers in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the air fryer for 5 minutes to bring the crispy exterior.
