WHY I LOVE THIS RECIPE
What I love most about waffle-cut fries is that they are delicious with almost every favorite dipping sauce! They are the perfect snack, made in just minutes.
I love making homemade waffle fries, but sometimes I just don't have time for that. The hot air of the air fryer makes these tasty potatoes a treat!
INGREDIENTS
- Frozen waffle fries
DIRECTIONS
STEP 1
Place frozen waffle fries in an air fryer basket in a single layer.
STEP 2
Don't overfill or have a lot of fries overlap in the basket. Be sure to leave enough space around the waffle fries so they will cook evenly.
STEP 3
Air fry waffle fries at 380 degrees for 12-15 minutes, shake the fries every 5 minutes. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
NOTE: I make this recipe in my Cosori air fryer. Depending on your air fryer, size and wattages, cooking time may need to be adjusted 1-2 minutes.
VARIATIONS
Use a different type of frozen fries - You can make any type of fries easily in the air fryer. Sweet potato waffles fries, potato wedges, curly fries, and even tater tots are a few delicious options.
Add seasonings - Even if you're going to use your favorite dips, you can still add black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and a little salt! Quick snacks like these fries are easy to season.
EXPERT TIPS
If you want to plate up the best waffle fries with a crispy crunch, pay close attention to the cooking process on the recipe card! This will give you the best results. You then just have to plate, dip, and eat!
If you have kids, don't forget that fries pair perfectly with mac & cheese, hot dogs, and burgers, too!
STORAGE AND REHEATING
If you have a large amount of fries remaining, save them! Let the leftover waffle fries cool down, and then store them in an airtight container. You can then reheat them in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes to get back that extra crispy waffles fries texture.
Even reheated, they'll taste as if they came from the deep fryer - but you'll know better!
