Yield: 4servings
Ingredients
1lb.frozen tater tots
Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the Air Fryer to 400 for 5 minutes. (If yours requires preheating.)
Place the frozen tater tots in a single layer in the Air Fryer so there’s no overlapping or stacking (this helps them cook evenly and crisp up all the way around). Spray the tops with cooking spray.
Cook the tots at 400 for 12-15 minutes, shaking the tray halfway through for even crisping. Start checking for your desired degree of crispiness at 12 minutes, adding another minute or two as needed.
Serve the tater tots hot and enjoy!

Notes
Tater tots: I’m using the regular size tater tots. If you are using the mini tater tots, your cooking time will just be a minute or so less.Dipping sauces: You can serve your tater tots with ketchup, BBQ sauce, honey mustard, Ranch or any other dipping sauce you love.Storing and reheating: Any extra tater tots that have been cooked in the Air Fryer, once cooled, can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, place in the Air Fryer tray and set to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 minutes.Unlike when you are first cooking them, it is OK to stack the tater tots when reheating. Meaning, they don’t have to be in a single layer. But if you do have a ton, add a minute or two as needed and maybe give them a good shake halfway through to ensure even reheating.
