Ore Ida Crinkle Fries in the Air Fryer

What You Will ❤️ About Air Fryer Frozen Crinkle Fries

• Super Quick! No preheating here – just toss them in and go!
• Seasoning! Add seasoning while you’re air frying to bake it in while cooking.
• Hot & Crispy with No Oil! You will love how crunchy these fries are with no deep frying!

FROZEN FOODS RULE OF THUMB: SAME TEMP. HALF THE TIME.

That’s my rule of thumb for cooking frozen foods in the air fryer.

Check the package instructions – use the same temperature in the air fryer and start with half the time. It’s worked like a charm for 99% of the items I’ve tried it with.

Always remember – you can add a few minutes more – but you cannot unburn something!

• Open bag of frozen fries (I used half of a 32 ounce bag of Ore-Ida golden crinkles frozen french fries)
• Pour fries into air fryer basket in a single layer
• Air fry at 400º for 10-12 minutes. Shake fries halfway thru.
• Remove from air fryer with tongs when golden brown and serve!

How to Air Fry Tater Tots

Next – let’s move to the smaller cousin of the French fry – the Tater Tot! Now whether you are a tot fan or a crispy crown coveter (they’re the flat circles) – they’re hard not to love. These little guys are super forgiving – they don’t burn and they heat up quick. I often times put them in with a burger or a piece of chicken by starting the meat for 3-4 min – then flip the protein and add the tots.

How to Air Fry Hash Browns

More potatoes!!! How about frozen hash brown patties!These are also very forgiving- and they take a little more time because they’re a bigger frozen chunk. You can also top it with cheese for the last 2-3 minutes BUT I would recommend a toothpick in a slice of cheese or it will blow off.

How to Air Fry Pizza Rolls

Last frozen food test for me was pizza rolls! Man – do I love these things!!!! It was a treat when I was a kid – Dad would make the small box (remember when they came in a box?) and we’d share them – always put salt on them and cooked them in the oven. Microwave pizza rolls are NOT EDIBLE. But they would kill me waiting for so long – the air fryer is perfect! FIVE MINUTES AND DONE!
