Air Fryer Carrot Fries
Air fryer carrot fries are a quick, easy side made with just a few ingredients and very little prep.
Ingredients
- 1 pound carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Peel the carrots, then cut them into evenly sized fry-shaped sticks. Keeping the carrots similar in size helps them cook evenly in the air fryer.
- Place the carrots in a large bowl and toss with olive oil and ranch seasoning until evenly coated.
- Arrange the carrots in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding.
- Air fry for 12–15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the carrots are tender with lightly crisped edges.
- Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately while hot.

Notes
- Cut carrots evenly: Cutting the carrots into similar-sized sticks helps them cook at the same rate and prevents some pieces from becoming too soft while others are undercooked.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket: Air frying works best when the carrots are in a single layer so hot air can circulate and create lightly crisped edges.
- Shake halfway through: Shaking the basket halfway ensures even cooking and browning.
- Serve right away: These carrot fries are best enjoyed fresh from the air fryer while they’re hot and lightly crisp.
- Serving Suggestions: These air fryer carrot fries pair well with mains like our Chicken Pesto Wrap or Turkey Burgers.
