Instant Pot French Fries

These Instant Pot French Fries were delicious! Let me just start by saying that the Instant Pot Duo Crisp just brought home-cooked French fries to a whole new level…. We used to love home-cooked French fries when you just slice some potatoes and cook them in a pot of grease on the stove. They were so delicious but not the healthiest.

We used our Instant Pot Duo Crisp + a handy dandy French Fry Cutter to make home-cooked French fries that are just as good as when they are fried but also so much healthier and easier to prepare.

We don’t like the potato peelings on our French fries so I cut them off first before we sliced the whole potatoes in the French Fry Cutter. Also, this was our first time using a French Fry cutter. It was a very quick and easy process of slicing the whole potatoes into perfectly sized French fries.

I gave the basket a good spray with the Avodaco oil first before dropping my French fries in to help stop them from sticking to the bottom. Also, every 5 minutes or so I would open the lid and give the basket a shake to move them around so the fries will cook evenly and also again to stop them from sticking to the bottom of the basket.

Can I make Instant Pot French Fries without an Instant Pot Duo Crisp?

You sure can! You can either purchase a Mealthy Crisp Lid or an Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid. We have an Instant Pot Duo (8 qt) and I was undecided if I wanted to purchase the Mealthy Crisp Lid or the Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid in order to be able to air fry in our Instant Pot. When I saw that there was a new Instant Pot Duo Crisp that came with a pressure cooker lid, air fry lid, and air fry basket we purchased that instead since our first Instant Pot Duo gets a fair amount of wear and tear I thought it would a good investment. I am very pleased with my decision! Now I can cook two different things in two different Instant Pots at the same time!!! Plus it came with the air fryer basket so I didn’t have to purchase that separately. 😉

Instructions – Instant Pot French Fries

#3.  Then, spray your French fries with avocado oil spray.
