Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet

Ingredients

For the Fries

  • 24 oz Frozen French Fries Choose crinkle-cut or regular for the perfect texture.
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil Lightly coat the fries to enhance crispiness when baking.

For the Toppings

  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese Opt for sharp cheddar for a bold flavor.
  • 1 cup Bacon Bits Use store-bought or cook fresh bacon until crispy.
  • 1 cup Sour Cream Adds a creamy finish; Greek yogurt can be a healthier substitute.
  • 1/4 cup Green Onions Chopped for garnish.
  • 1 tsp Paprika or Chili Powder Optional spices for heat.

For Serving

  • 1 cup Dipping Sauces Consider ranch, BBQ sauce, or spicy mayo.

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) according to the fry package instructions.
  • Prepare Fries: Spread the frozen French fries evenly on a baking sheet in a single layer for even baking.
  • Bake Fries: Cook them for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
  • Add Cheese and Bacon: Remove fries, sprinkle with cheddar cheese and bacon bits, then return to oven for 5-7 minutes.
  • Garnish and Serve: Drizzle with sour cream and sprinkle with green onions. Serve hot!

Notes

For a spicy kick, add jalapeños before baking the cheese and bacon. Best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
