How long to cookFrench Fries in Air Fryer?

The thinner you cut the potatoes, the faster the fries will cook in the air fryer. French fries should cook for 10 minutes in the air fryer before being flipped and stirred, then cooked for another 10 or 15 minutes. They’re done when they begin to turn golden brown and crispy.

Storing and Reheating Leftover Fries

To store - Store leftover french fries in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 or 2 days.

To reheat - Place the fries inside the air fryer basket and cook at 400ºF for 5 to 10 minutes or until crispy and heated through.
