Lots of factors influence outcome of how the tots or puffs cook. They all vary in size,  thickness, and sometimes the coating so you’ll have to adjust timing. For smaller air fryers (less than 5qt.) 1 pound is about the max without overcrowding the air fryer. The more you fill the basket the more frequently you’ll want to shake the basket to help them cook evenly. If you have a larger air fryer, you can cook more so long as the basket isn’t filled more than 1/2 full. All air fryers are different and some cook much hotter than others. Once you cook your first batch, you’ll know more of what works for your model of air fryer and size of food. These  were tested on basket style air fryers. Read more recipe notes below the recipe.

Place the frozen tots (puffs)in the air fryer basket and spread out evenly. No oil spray is needed.

Air Fry at 400°F/205°C for 5-8 minutes. Shake and gently stir about halfway through cooking. If cooking larger batches, or if your tots (puffs) don&#039;t cook evenly, try turning them multiple times on following batches.

If needed air fry at 400°F/205°C for an additional 1-3 minutes or until crisped to your liking. Season with salt &amp; pepper, if desired.

Easy Crispy Potato Puffs—A Perfect Snack

small- medium potatoes

water (until it covers the potatoes)

cornstarch

garlic powder

black pepper

white pepper

salt

dry thyme

parsley

Vegetable oil

Prepare the Potatoes

If you&#8217;re starting from scratch, peel your potatoes and cut them into small chunks. Boil them in salted water for about 15 minutes, or until they&#8217;re completely soft when pierced with a fork. Drain them well and let them steam dry for a minute &#8211; this helps remove excess moisture.

Make the Potato Mixture

Mash the potatoes thoroughly with a fork until smooth. Add your spices: black pepper, white pepper, dry thyme, garlic powder, and salt. Then mix in the chopped parsley and cornstarch. Use your hands to knead everything together until it forms a uniform dough that holds its shape when squeezed.

Shape the Puffs

This is the most time-consuming part. Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls. If you&#8217;re short on time, make them slightly larger. Place each shaped puff on a tray lightly dusted with cornstarch or flour to prevent sticking.

Chill Before Frying

Put the tray in the freezer for 10 minutes. This helps the puffs hold their shape better during frying and results in a crispier exterior. Don&#8217;t skip this step!

Heat the Oil

Pour enough oil into a deep pan to fully submerge the puffs &#8211; about 2 inches deep. Heat it gradually over medium heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C). If you don&#8217;t have a thermometer, test with a small piece of potato &#8211; it should bubble vigorously when added.

Fry in Batches

Carefully add the potato puffs to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they&#8217;re golden brown all over. Work in batches if needed &#8211; it&#8217;s better to fry fewer at once than to crowd the pan.

Drain and Season

Remove the fried puffs with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with a little extra salt for that perfect seasoned crust.

Serve and Enjoy!

These are best eaten warm. Serve them plain for a tasty snack, or with dipping sauces like ranch, ketchup, or garlic parmesan for extra flavor. The crispy outside gives way to a wonderfully creamy interior &#8211; pure potato perfection!
