Using the air fryer to make frozen french fries is a no-brainer. It takes hardly any time compared to cooking them in the oven, they turn out incredibly crispy, and there is no frying involved! It’s super simple and once you try it, you will NEVER cook french fries any other way! Serve them alongside Air Fryer Hamburgers, Air Fryer Hot Dogs, or Air Fryer Chicken Wings for the perfect quick meal! Add Copycat Chick-fil-A sauce or Copycat Zaxby’s Sauce for the perfect dip!

How to Make Frozen French Fries in the Air Fryer:

**scroll down for full ingredients list and printable directions**

  • Pick out the type of frozen fries to use: waffle fries, french fries, steak fries, tater tots…all will work in the air fryer.
  • If using the whole bag, I like to spray some oil in the bag using my oil sprayer, then add salt, seasoning salt, or cajun seasoning for a kick! Then pour into air fryer basket.
  • If using a portion of the bag, add them to the air fryer basket and spray with oil and sprinkle salt into the basket on top of the fries.

  • Close the air fryer basket and set the air fryer to 400 degrees and cook for 8 minutes. Open the basket and shake the fries. Close the air fryer then set for 3 more minutes.
    • Check doneness at this point, if more time is needed add 1-2 more minutes (various brands will differ in cooking time).
    • I do NOT pre-heat my air fryer, but if you do, you may need to subtract 1-2 minutes from the cooking time.

    Love how crispy these get on the outside while staying soft in the middle. Such an easy side dish to add without having to turn on the oven.
