Preparation
- Peel the carrots and cut them into fry-shaped strips, about ¼ inch thick.

Cooking
- Place the carrot fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding them to allow proper air circulation.
- Cook the fries for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crispiness. They should turn golden brown and become crispy on the outside.
Serving
