Crispy Air Fryer Crinkle-Cut Fries
Nutrition
Frozen fries in the air fryer are one of those things that just works better than the oven. The hot circulating air gets them crispy on the outside without any added oil. Crinkle-cut fries are especially good here — all those ridges catch the heat and turn golden.
No prep, no seasoning during cooking — just spread them in the basket and let the air fryer go. A quick shake at the halfway mark keeps things even. Salt them right when they come out so it sticks to the surface while they're still hot. Pair these with our Salt & Pepper Air Fryer Turkey Breast Bites or Smoky Paprika Air Fryer Chicken Breast for a full plate.
