Fructose Free Maple & Apple Cider Vinegar Cassava Fries

Crispy on the outside, tender within, and finished with a sticky-sweet glaze that hits every savory note — these baked cassava fries are genuinely hard to stop eating. Cassava is a naturally starchy root that crisps up beautifully in the oven, making it a brilliant base for anyone who needs to sidestep high-fructose fruits and sweeteners without sacrificing indulgence. The glaze comes together from pure maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos, which together create that glossy, tangy-sweet coating without relying on ingredients that tend to cause problems for fructose-sensitive eaters. A quick parboil before roasting is the secret step that keeps the interior fluffy while the edges go golden and slightly caramelized under the heat. Turmeric and ginger in the seasoning add a warm, earthy depth that makes these feel far more interesting than your average fry. Brushing the glaze on in the final minutes of roasting lets it set into a lacquered finish rather than just pooling at the bottom of the pan. Scatter on some fresh parsley and serve them straight from the oven — they disappear fast.
