Air Fryer French Fries
Get crispy, healthy French fry perfection in almost no time.
You've got to give these air fryer French fries a try! If you're someone who loves crispy, crunchy French fries, then this recipe is for you. You'll especially love it if you're not crazy about all the added fat and calories in regular fries. With an air fryer, you can get that crispy texture that you love without all the guilt.
What is an air fryer? An air fryer is a small appliance that cooks food by rapidly circulating hot air. Because of this, you only need a small amount of oil to cook your food (compared with a deep fat fryer). Air fryers also cook food more quickly than most conventional ovens, making them a great time saver.
Let's talk about these french fries! Making them really couldn't be any simpler. All you have to do is cut up a few potatoes, season with your favorite spices, and pop them in the air fryer for 20 minutes. We love paprika and garlic powder, but feel free to add some other seasonings you love (onion powder or cumin would be fantastic!). The finished fries are crispy, flavorful, and totally guilt free. You've got to make these this week.

It's hard to believe that air fryers actually work, but these fries look so crispy and golden. I'll have to get some new appliances--this would be so much easier than frying.

I do love crispy, crunchy french fries and I also love unpeeled potatoes but I find if you deep fry them like that in oil they come out soggy so I would like to try this in the air fryer. Another added bonus I find with the air fryer is that you can coat the french fries in the favorite seasoning and they come out perfect.

I heard that Meghan Markle grew up in California and since Californians love french fries, the Royal bride will surely love this Air Fryer French Fries for her meals or for snacks while watching TV with the Prince. Exciting!

I'm not surprised why the royal-bride-to-be of the famous Prince Harry loves french fries. She grew up in California where people love to eat french fries so Air Fryer French Fries is fine with her. This charming commoner is so lovable and I think she will fit the royal family to a tee! Congratulations, Meghan Markle!
