Notes

  1. Use quality tater tots.
  2. Look for tots with a few ingredients that you can read to avoid processed ingredients. I recommend the Alexia brand.
  3. Use a small amount of oil, I recommend olive or avocado oil. Moderately coat the air fryer basket with oil.
  4. Some air fryers need to be preheated. Preheat your air fryer if needed.
  5. Be sure to toss the tots at the halfway point, 7.5 minutes to guarantee an even fry.
