Ingredients

  • 24 ounces frozen French fries
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

How to Make Loaded French Fries

  1. Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the frozen French fries package.
  2. Spread the frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake them according to package instructions until golden and crispy, typically about 25-30 minutes.
  3. Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot fries. Return them to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  4. While the cheese is melting, prepare your toppings. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
  5. Once the cheese has melted, remove the fries from the oven and drizzle with BBQ sauce. Add dollops of the garlic sour cream on top, followed by a generous sprinkle of sliced green onions.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your Loaded French Fries while they’re hot!

Tips for the Best Results

  • For extra crispy fries, consider air-frying them instead of baking.
  • Experiment with different types of cheese for varied flavors; pepper jack or mozzarella work great too.
  • Ensure your fries are hot when you add the cheese so it melts perfectly.

Easy Variations

  • Swap the BBQ sauce for buffalo sauce for a spicy kick.
  • Add cooked bacon bits or pulled pork for a heartier version.
  • Top with jalapeños for an added crunch and heat.

What to Serve With It

  • Pair with a side of ranch dressing for dipping.
  • Serve alongside a fresh garden salad for a balanced meal.
  • Complement with chicken wings or sliders for a perfect game day feast.

Storage and Reheating

Loaded French Fries are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them in an oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through and crispy again.
