Tips, Tricks & FAQs
You can use whatever you like! I like skinny fries but crinkle fries would be great!
Sure! I just love American cheese. I still recommend melting it onto the hamburger so it really gets that cheeseburger feeling.
Store leftovers in airtight containers and refrigerate up to a week. Reheat in the air fryer (if you have one) at 250º for 5 minutes. You’ll likely want to remove any lettuce on the fries before refrigerating.
Variations for Cheeseburger Fries
- Healthier – Swap out and use ground turkey if you’re wanting to make it a little healthier.
- Bacon – Nothing makes a cheeseburger better than bacon. Cook a few slices and crumble on top!
- Spicy – Swap and use pepper jack cheese and add pickled jalapenos and a little sriracha for a spicy kick!
- Cheese Sauce – looking for a cheese sauce instead? I have the best cheese sauce that would be delicious on these fries!
