Air Fryer Frozen French Fries
Description
Straight, waffle, shoestring, or steak fries — the best method for cooking any frozen air fryer French Fries. Crispy fries done in just 10 minutes!
Ingredients
- 16 ounces frozen French fries straight cut, crinkle, steak, waffle, or thin cut/shoestring
- Nonstick cooking spray optional as most frozen fries come pre-oiled
- Kosher salt optional as most frozen fries come pre-seasoned
Directions
- Coat your air fryer with nonstick spray (if using). Place the fries in a single layer in your air fryer basket—they can touch at the sides a bit but shouldn’t be piled on top of each other; if needed, cook them in batches. If you’d like to keep the fries warm in the oven between batches, preheat your oven to 250°F.
- For straight cut, crinkle cut, or steak fries: Air fry at 375°F for 9 to 11 minutes. For waffle or shoestring fries: Air fry at 360°F for 8 to 11 minutes. Shake the basket a few times throughout, and cook until the fries are hot and crisped to your liking. The time will vary depending upon the thickness of the fry, your air fryer model, and the brand of fries (keep an eye on them towards the end—I found crinkle fries didn’t darken much and got over cooked the most easily).
- Keep the air fryer frozen fries warm on a baking sheet in the oven, or enjoy them immediately with a pinch of salt to taste.
