• Using your favorite brand of frozen french fries, add them to the air fryer basket.
  • Don’t pile them too high if you want them to all get cooked evenly.
• Set the air fryer for 8 minutes. Once it stops, open the basket and shake the fries around. Close and set for 5 more minutes. Open and shake, then sprinkle some salt over the top of the fries, and sprinkle the cheese over the tops of the fries. Close and cook for 1 more minute.
• Eat them immediately!

What is the best cheese for Air Fryer Cheese Fries?

This is totally up to you! For these specific cheese fries I used pepper-jack cheese because I wanted a little spice! Colby jack cheese is popular as well as medium cheddar! You really cannot go wrong with ANY cheese on these fries!

What toppings or dips are good for Air Fryer Cheese Fries?

• Cheese alone on cheese fries is amazing, but I love adding buffalo sauce as well as homemade blue cheese. Add some green onions as well for a little crunch.
• Topping the fries with cheese, shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, blue cheese crumbs, and jalapeno ranch make a great dish!
• Add some bacon, sour cream, and green onions to the top of the cheese fries for a loaded baked potato version!

• Use this Best Chili Recipe and load up the cheese fries for a hearty meal!
• Add shredded chicken, marinara sauce, and mozzarella for a fun take on chicken parmesan – french fry style!
• Serving Air Fryer Cheese Fries with Sriracha Ranch, jalapeno ranch, or ZAX sauce is always a great option!
