Oil-Free Roasted Potatoes

Oil-free roasted potatoes don’t sound possible, right? You’re in luck because this recipe absolutely does the trick at making oil free crispy potatoes! And, I also added red peppers and onions to the mix. Delish!

Oil-Free Roasted Potatoes

Oil-free roasted potatoes are a perfect side dish when looking for whole food plant based potato recipes.

Since potatoes are back on the menu, (see this article, “Potatoes: To Eat or Not to Eat”) I’m looking for ways to use them without any added fat. I like steaming instead of boiling them since it keeps more of the nutrients in the potato instead of leaching out into the water.

Oil-Free Roasted Potatoes

Have a look at these plant-based potato recipes: 

  • Scalloped Potato and Cabbage Casserole 
  • Sweet Potato Veggie Lasagna 
  • Potato Salad with Tofu Scramble, to name a few.

How to roast Potatoes without oil

Can you roast potatoes without oil? The trick to these oil free roasted potatoes is to steam them a little so they’re a bit cooked. Then, you’re going to add a little flour to the pan after you drain them, cover and shake like crazy!

Now your potatoes should be a little smashed and dusted with flour. This is one of the secrets to making the potatoes crispy and for these roasted potatoes without oil.

Oil-Free Roasted Potatoes

Now that these oil-free roasted potatoes are all coated, they are ready to put back in the oven!

Make clean up easy by using a non-stick cookie sheet, or a little non-stick spray. You could even use parchment paper.

Sprinkling salt and black pepper will boost these oven roasted potatoes without oil natural grounding flavor. To make them a little smoky, you can add some sweet or smoky paprika or chipotle seasoning blend.

Oil-Free Roasted Potatoes

I love making different kinds of sauces for these crispy potatoes without oil to make it an ultra-comforting snack. A smoky Chipotle aioli using my egg-free mayonnaise and chipotle spices, or adding cilantro lime and garlic for a fresh zing. You can make a simple sugar-free ketchup. Oh, so many options!

Choosing plant-based sides are easy. Take a look at a few more:

  • Cauliflower Sweet Potato Mash
  • Low Fat Broccoli Salad
  • Moroccan Roasted Carrots
  • Potato Salad with Tofu Scramble
  • Spiced Baked Sweet Potato Fries

These can be eaten on their own, and if you haven’t already devoured them all, these make a wonderful accompaniment to my favorite go-to plant-based burgers like these Black Bean Mushroom Burgers, or these Falafel Burgers.

Oil-Free Roasted Potatoes

Beautiful colors and delightful taste make these oil-free roasted potatoes great for dinner or breakfast.
Prep Time25 mins
Cook Time45 mins
Total Time1 hr 10 mins
Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

  • 2 large russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1″ pieces.
  • 2 large yams peeled and cut into 1″ pieces.
  • 1 large pepper any color, cut into 1″ pieces
  • 1 large red onion cut into 1″ pieces
  • 2-3 Tbl whole wheat flour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the potatoes, onion, and peppers in a large saute pan with a little water and once water is boiling, steam for about 5 minutes until the potatoes are crisp-tender.
  • Drain the steamed vegetables, but leave them in the pot (don’t put the pot back on the heat), and sprinkle the flour over.
  • Put the lid back on the pot, and shake it vigorously for a few seconds. You are marring the edges, which will facilitate the crunchiness of the potatoes later on.
  • Dump the potatoes onto a sheet pan lightly sprayed with oil or use parchment paper or a silpat, and make sure they are in a single layer (don’t crowd the potatoes, or the edges won’t get crispy). Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Roast for 30-45 minutes at 450 degrees F, turning after half way done, but watch them carefully so as not to burn.
