Equipment
1 Air Fryer - If you don't have an air fryer you can follow the instructions to bake in the oven.
Ingredients
2Russet PotatoesLarge
1-2TbspAvocado Oil
Sea Salt To Taste
PepperTo Taste
Instructions
Peel potatoes if preferred. Slice into sticks, about the width of your pinky finger.
Fill a bowl with cold water, large enough to cover all your fries. Add fries to water and let sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, preheat air fryer to 375 F.
Drain the water from the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean dish towel or paper towels.
Toss with 1-2 Tbsp avocado oil, plus salt and pepper to taste.
For best results, add potatoes to air fryer in one layer so they’re not stacked on top of each other.
Cook 10-14 minutes, until potatoes are crispy and brown. Shake a few times during cooking if they are not in one layer.
Serve!
If you are cooking them in batches and want to keep them all warm and toasty, set your oven to 200 and keep fries warm on a baking sheet until ready to serve.
Notes
If you don’t have an air fryer: Bake in oven at 425 F for 20 minutes, flip fries over and cook for additional 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.The sodium nutrition fact is based on ½ tsp for the whole recipe.
