Make Air Fryer Frozen French Fries in your Cuisinart Air Fryer. These seasoned fries taste better than making in the oven or traditional fryer!
Our family loves french fries and the air fryer can make the best french fries and that includes frozen french fries. They cook up quickly and are super crispy without any added oils. We love making them our own by adding our homemade french fry seasoning, but you could keep it simple with just a little bit of salt as well.
INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED FOR AIR FRYER FROZEN FRENCH FRIES
For this recipe, we use Crinkle Cut frozen french fries, granulated garlic, salt, dried parsley, and pepper.
FRENCH FRY SEASONING
To make the french fry seasoning we use the same seasonings as our air fryer baked potatoes, that’s garlic, salt, parsley, and we also add pepper.
HOW TO COOK FRENCH FRIES IN AIR FRYER
Place the frozen french fries in air fryer basket and then make sure you spread them around so the air can circulate.
Air fry the fries for 7-8 minutes on the lower slot in your Cuisinart Air Fryer.
After the 7-8 minutes have passed check if you need to move them around, cook another 5-7 minutes or until desired crispiness.
Once the fries are done sprinkle on the seasoning and then serve with ketchup or even some Sweet and Sour Sauce.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO COOK FROZEN FRENCH FRIES IN THE AIR FRYER?
It should take about 10-20 minutes depending on the size of the french fries. Shoestring french fries should cook quickly, about 10 minutes. Whereas steak cut french fries could take about 20 minutes.

RECIPE NOTES:
- The timing for this recipe is for crinkle-cut fries, adjust the timing accordingly for smaller or larger french fries.
- We tested this recipe in a Cuisinart Air Fryer, your air fryer may cook differently.
- If you want extra crispy fries, a bit more browned, during the last 3 minutes of cook time we suggest raising to the higher level in the air fryer.
- Seasoning not sticking? You may need to give your french fries a spritz of oil to allow the french fry seasoning to stick, we have had to do this with Alexia’s Fries.
