Enjoy fries guilt-free with these no oil air fryer fries!
I love making chips in my air fryer, but nothing beats these oil-free fries, let's be very serious. I'll never make fries any other way! They come out crispy and crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside...without any oil.
You can smother them in gravy or nacho "cheese" sauce, add them on top of your veggie burger, or make loaded fries with vegan bacon bits and ranch dressing. So good.
Usually, I just like to keep it simple and dip my air fryer fries into ketchup or BBQ sauce for a snack. Yup, I make fries for a snack (okay, and sometimes a meal) all the time.
If you have never used an air fryer before, don't feel intimidated! Fries are actually perfect for a first-time-air-fryer. They are really easy to make.
Peel and rinse your potatoes before cutting them into fries. They don't have to be perfect, but try to keep them in the same range of thickness. Choose your seasoning - do you want to go simple with a little salt, or are you craving seasoned fries? The recipe below includes my personal favorite seasoning but you can do whatever your tastebuds desire.
Place the fries into your air fryer and fry at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Stir every 5-10 minutes to make sure they cook evenly. And...that's it!
I use a Ninja Foodi - it can work as both a pressure cooker and an air fryer!
