To reheat fries in an air fryer and get them crispy, follow these general steps:
- Preheat the air fryer to around 325°F to 400°F (163°C to 204°C). Preheating helps the fries cook evenly and become crispy
- Place the fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket without overcrowding. If you have many fries, reheat in batches to ensure even crisping
- Cook the fries for about 3 to 5 minutes. Shake or flip the fries halfway through to promote even reheating
- Check for crispiness after the initial cook time. If needed, continue reheating in 1-2 minute increments until they reach your desired crispness
- Thicker fries or larger quantities may require slightly longer cooking times, up to 8 minutes in some cases
In summary, reheating fries in an air fryer typically takes about 3 to 5 minutes at 325°F to 400°F, with shaking halfway through. Adjust time based on fry thickness and quantity for best results
