How Long to Cook Frozen French Fries (Sheet Pan) in the sheet pan
Specification: 2 lbs frozen straight-cut French fries spread across two half sheet pans (do not crowd onto one pan) in a single layer
3-Step Execution Protocol
Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C) — hot for crisping. Arrange frozen french fries (sheet pan) (2 lbs frozen straight-cut French fries spread across two half sheet pans (do not crowd onto one pan) in a single layer) on a parchment-lined sheet pan in a single layer.
Cook for 22–28 mins (flip at 15 min). Flip at the 15-minute mark for even browning.
Fries are golden-brown across at least 70% of the exterior surface; the ridges are audibly crisp when squeezed with tongs; interior is fluffy-hot, not dense-warm. Under-cooked = pale, floppy, lukewarm inside. Rest for 2 minutes before serving.
