WOW, what an easy and delicious meal! Loved these crunchy taters! They were so yummy and I will certainly make them again! I think these would be great with a mexican seasoning and some guacamole or Italian herbs and a cream cheese dip. Mmm, so many possibilities!<br/>I used no sugar added whole spelt flakes and that added a nutty crunch to the taters, which we all enjoyed. I needed to cover my fries after 20 minutes as the flakes were browning a bit too much, but other than that your directions were spot on.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, Lori! Made and reviewed for Everyday Is A Holiday Tag Game January 2011.

Love how crispy these are! You really have to get the cornflake crumbs pretty small for them to stick. I ended up pulsing them in my blender. I made a garlic lime aioli to dip it in, so thought the flavor was fine, but it would also be good with seasonings.

So satisfying with the crispy exterior and soft potatoy inside! I did make a small change in that instead of dipping the wedge in butter a just gave them a quick shot of cooking spray as we have to watch are cholesterol. The cooking spray may also account for why they were a little pail even though completely cooked through. I also used the Rice Krispie option as that is what I had on hand. The cook time was spot on as they were perfectly done at 40 minutes. Thanks for the post.

These are very easy to whip up. I used the rice krispies and crunched them up in a plastic baggie, then added the potatoes several at a time and shook them until they were coated. Mine were done just right at the end of 40 minutes.

These are really good, and best part 4yr DS has 2 servings (and he does NOT eat potatoes!!) Made as directed using Rice Krispie crumbs that I pulsed in the food processor. Will be making more often since DS ate them!! Made for Everyday Holiday.
