Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries FAQs
What makes Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries different from regular Crinkle Cut Fries?
Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries take Crinkle Cut’s loveable signature ridges and fluffy centers to another level of crunch. The difference is all in the texture: McCain’s Extra Crispy Fries use rice flour, paprika, potato, corn & rice starch to create a specially made coating that locks in crispness after baking or air frying.
How do you make Crinkle Cut Fries extra crispy in the oven & air fryer?
To get that crave-worthy crunch in the oven:
1. use a dark, non-stick baking sheet or shallow baking pan
2. spread your fries in a single layer, don’t overcrowd them
3. preheat & bake at 425°F, flip fries halfway through (9 minutes) for even crisping
For air frying:
1. preheat your air fryer to 360°F
2. cook in a single layer for about 12–13 minutes. Don’t stack fries.
3. shake the basket at the halfway point (6-7 minutes)
4. serve right after cooking has completed
5. Pro tip: don’t thaw them first. Cooking straight from frozen keeps the exterior crisp and interior tender.
How do you keep Crinkle Cut Fries extra crispy after cooking?
Airflow and spacing are the key to retaining that crispy fry texture both during and after cooking. While cooking, make sure:
After cooking:
-
place fries on a wire rack instead of stacking them on a plate
- this prevents steam from softening them
- if you’re going to use a plate, make sure they’re evenly spread out
-
skip the foil or sealed containers
Do Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries pair well with loaded fry dishes?
Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries are the perfect foundation for loaded creations. Their ridges hug sauces and toppings so nothing slides off. The extra crunch also means they won’t get soggy under chili, cheese, or other bold layers and stay structured, flavorful, and snackable to the last bite. Whether it’s a mountain of pulled pork and slaw or a drizzle of hot sauce and ranch, crispy crinkle fries make every loaded dish feel more exciting and delicious.
