Air Fryer Frozen French Fries

I am going to admit that somedays I make Air Fryer French Fries just so I can enjoy my favorite dipping sauces. Don't get me wrong I love the French Fries in the air fryer but I also LOVE dipping sauces.

There is just something so good about dipping into delicious sauces too. The air fryer makes it so dang easy to make crispy french fries.

You don't have to worry about preheating the oven when making these french fries. While some air fryers do say to preheat it takes so much less time than the oven.

Cooking frozen french fries in the air fryer is so dang easy! Some days it is harder to get the bag open then it is to make air fried french fries.

In less than 15 minutes you can have perfectly crisp delicious fries ready to serve!

Ingredients

Frozen French Fries

You can use any type of frozen french fries. We really enjoy the Red Robin seasoned steak fries.

If you are using plain french fries I would top them with seasoned salt when you remove them from the air fryer to make sure the seasoning sticks to the fries.

Dipping Sauces

Polynesian Sauce

Campfire Sauce

Chick fil A Sauce

Arby's Sauce

Horsey Sauce

Fry Sauce

The list could go on but I trust that you have your favorite dipping sauce on hand or maybe it is time to get adventurous and try a new one.

Equipment Needed

Air Fryer

Tongs

Recipe Tips

Don't overcrowd the basket with fries. You want them evenly distributed so they all get crispy.

Different types of french fries can have varying cooking times. The thinner the fries the quicker they will cook.

Every air fryer will cook at varying temperatures. Make sure to check your fries as they are cooking to not overcook them.

Tossing the fries a few times during cooking will help rotate them and make sure they are all crispy!

Don't spray the air fryer basket with non-stick spray. I keep reading that non-stick spray can damage the air fryer basket.

Check to see if you need to preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees. Some air fryers will need to be pre-heated.

You can stack the frozen fries in the air fryer but you want to make sure there is still space for hot air to circulate. I try to keep to 50-75% of the basket being full of fries.

Do I need to defrost frozen french fries before air frying?

NO! You want to put the fries in right out of the bag from the freezer. Just cut it open, pour the fries in, set the temperature and cooking time, shake a few times, and done.

How long to cook frozen french fries in air fryer?

Depending on the type of French Fry you can expect them to take between 8 to 15 minutes

Do you preheat air fryer for frozen french fries?

This really depends on the model of air fryer you are using. The owner's manual should tell you if you need to preheat. If you do need to preheat you will most likely need to lower the cooking time a couple of minutes.
