Preheat, Toss with Oil: For best results, you will want to preheat the air fryer to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, place the frozen tater tots in a single layer in the air fryer basket and lightly spray with oil.
Cook & Toss: Put the basket into the air fryer, then set the heat to 390 degrees F or 200°C and the time to ten minutes. Press start. At the ten minute mark, remove the basket from the air fryer and toss the tots.
Place Back in Air Fryer: Return the basket to the air fryer. Set the heat to 390° or 200°C and the time for another 15 minutes. Press start to continue cooking. Toss the tater tots.
