The Secret to Perfect Air Fryer French Fries
We all love crispy French fries, but let’s be honest—deep frying at home is messy, expensive, and not exactly healthy. The good news? You can make amazing fries in your air fryer with half the effort and none of the guilt!
Step 1: Slice russet potatoes into fries and soak them in water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Step 2: Cook a few slices of bacon in the air fryer (trust me on this). Save the bacon fat—it’s pure gold!
Step 3: Toss the drained fries in that flavorful bacon fat (it is healthier than seed oil!), sprinkle with salt, and air fry at 350°F for 10 minutes, then crank it up to 400°F for another 10 minutes for that golden crunch.
Step 4: Top with crispy bacon bits and melted cheddar cheese—because why not?
The air fryer saves energy, cuts down on oil, and gives you fries that are crispy outside, fluffy inside. Plus, reusing bacon fat adds a restaurant-quality depth of flavor—without wasting a drop!
Would you swap deep-fried fries for these air fryer fries?
