Jane's Low Fat Oven Fries

2 pounds baking potatoes
salt and pepper
nonstick cooking spray

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

Spray two 15 1/2" by 10 1/2" jelly-roll pans or 2 large cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray.

Scrub 4 medium unpeeled baking potatoes (2 pounds) well but do not peel. Cut each potato lengthwise in half. Holding each half flat side down, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, then cut each slice lengthwise into1/4-inch-wide sticks. Place potatoes in medium bowl and toss with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Divide potato sticks evenly between pans. Place pans on 2 oven racks and bake potatoes 20 to 25 minutes, until tender and lightly browned, turning potatoes once with pancake turner and rotating pans between upper and lower racks halfway through baking time.
