Have you tried McCain smiles in the air fryer? These cute air fryer smiley fries will sure make your day! This is a quick and easy snack, appetizer or side dish that’ll impress.
Place Frozen smiley fries in air fryer basket. Set temperature to 400°F / 200°C and air fryer for 8 to 10 mins.
Serve immediately
I didn’t need to flip the smiles. If you find that you need to do so, you can use a pair of kitchen tongs or a small spatula.
Air fryer Oven
Preheat air fryer to 400°F for 4 minutes
While air fryer is preheating, arrange smiley fries in the air fryer rack.
Bake in preheated air fryer oven for 6 to 7 mins. Add more time as needed. (Total time including preheat is 10 to 11 minutes)
No need to flip the fries.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce
Notes
These were tested in both a preheated and non preheated air fryer and the total time for both were very close. You really do not need to preheat your air fryer.
Cook from frozen, no need to thaw.
No oil needed. These come precooked and frozen.
Do not overcrowd the basket to ensure a crispy outcome.
McCain smiles happens to be one of the recipes I usually don’t need to flip over half way through cooking. They actually get heated through in my Cosori and instant vortex pro air fryers. How You can flip yours, there’s no harm in doing that.
