Air fryer French fries come out perfectly crispy every time! Made with russet potatoes, extra virgin olive oil, and a pinch of salt, this recipe is quick and simple \u2014 to be served with your favorite sauces.<\/em><\/p>\n

Making air fryer French fries is an art form. I remember the first time I tried to do it. I was a novice air fryer owner and didn\u2019t know about the importance of leaving a little bit of breathing room in the basket. The results were a half-burnt, half-undercooked mess. Oh, how I\u2019ve learned since then!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I\u2019m going to teach you in this post:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Do You Put Oil In The Air Fryer For Fries?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

    I recommend applying the EVOO to the raw potatoes in a mixing bowl before you add them to your air fryer.<\/p>\n

    You can use a bit of oil directly in the air fryer, but I find that you really don\u2019t need that much for this recipe. Just a tablespoon added to the bowl does the trick!<\/p>\n
