      5 Stars for flavor, I love butternut squash. 1 Star for recipe time. The first batch at less than the 40 minutes specified were BLACK sticks. 2nd batch worked. The small ones at 10 minutes and the larger ones at about 18 minutes. Would also be good with a kick like paprika or some other spice.

      Really quite good, although be warned that the fries will shrink significantly by the time they are done cooking. I used a whole squash and I barely had enough for four tiny servings. They were so tasty, so we were sad that we didn't have any more. Thanks for sharing.

      Yummy! This was so easy and completely delicious! This is the first time I tried butternut squash so I wanted something simple to start with so I could really get a feel for the flavor of this veggie. This recipe sure fit the bill! Thanks so much for sharing.

      Delicious taste for DD1 (5 years old) DD2 (15 months) and I, however they did not crisp like fries. I think it does depend on the pan somewhat. As that was the case I had with two pans of sweet potato fries once. I used 2 steel pans this time I think. Instead of kosher salt I used sea salt, organic extra virgin olive oil instead of garbage spray. We loved these without ketchup (had none on hand though) also no syrup either alone they were yummy but just like cooked squash which we like.

      I could not get these crispy. Ended up just being cooked squash that was a lot of work.

      Fantastic! We were so excited to have a different idea for butternut squash, since we stock up in the Fall. Thank you! It was delicious! Biggest difficulty for me is peeling the squash when it is raw. Anyone have any good tips for that?

      I'll be darned...these aren't bad! If the reader is like me and very skeptical I encourage you to go ahead and try them. I cut up regular potatoes to make as a back up just in case we didn't like them. I guess we'll have to eat them tomorrow. They taste like regular fries with ketchup and like sweet potato fries without. We liked them both ways. Even my guys who don't like butternut squash ate them up. Wish I had made more.
      In a nutshell, if you're a doubter like me don't be afraid, you'll be pleasantly surprized

      This is crazy good! No leftovers good. I was worried at first because I didn't have any ketchup, but didn't miss it.

      I DID cook on a raised rack over a baking sheet, so they didn't stick to the pan.. Covered the pan with foil to make cleanup easy.

      Next time I make this, I will pile them on a plate and try melting Parmesan or asiago cheese on top.

      To reduce the mess from spraying oil/ sprinkling salt, I tossed the squash in a bowl with seasoned salt and olive oil to evenly coat everything. (this also lets you control the amount of ingredients so not too salty/oily)

      These were a bit strange to get used to, only because my brain thought sweet potato when I saw them, but my mouth said squash when I ate one! Once I got past that, I really enjoyed them. I usually only make pureed butternut squash, so this was a nice change.
      My husband really liked them, but unfortunately my children were not fooled. They know a squash when they taste it, even if it looks like a fry! Oh well. Some day they'll eat their veggies :o)
      Thanks for a fun and different squash recipe!

      Very good. Some were not crisp, but I guess that's why it's called squash. Good alternative to regular fries.

      SUPER easy & yummy! Sprayed w/butter cooking spray & baked for closer to an hour but LOVED these!

      Loved the flavor! I took mine out at 35 minutes because they were starting to burn, but they weren't crisp at all. I'm not sure if that meant I cooked them too long or not long enough. The flavor was excellent though. I adore sweet potato fries and these definitely rivaled them. I just wish they had been at least a little firmer. My Pampered Chef serrated peeler made peeling it a breeze. Will definitely make again.

      I have mine in the oven right now and the smell is wonderful.
      MOD: I added some nutmeg and garlic with a tiny bit of raw sugar, salt and pepper.
      I went ahead and made up the entire squash as fries.
      We are having them with some bacon/cheese stuffed burgers and a small side salad.

      Very good! Reminded me a bit of sweet potato fries -- but these fries are significantly lower in calories. Loved the sweetness of the squash. Whether you're dieting or not, these fries are better than regular potato fries.

      Wow! How do I give more than 5 stars? This is so low cal, easy, and tasty! Yeah the peeling is a pain, and the cook time is a bit long, but well worth it. I'll be going to the store tomorrow to pickup more squash! Thanks for posting such a simple yet tasty recipe!

      YUM! I bought the more expensive pre-peeled squash, and I'm glad I did. Had them with salt and vinegar potato chip fish and it was an awesome meal!

      These were good. Of course, the hard part was peeling the dang squash! I added chili powder to ours. I should have cooked them longer but they were still good.
