Cooking tater tots in the air fryer is the best cooking method. Though the tator tots aren't deep fried, they still are crispy and golden - so delicious.
Add the tater tots in a single layer to the air fryer basket.
Air fry the tater tots for 12 minutes, or until golden brown, tossing several times. For extra cripsy tater tots, cook an extra 2-3 minutes. (You may need to cook in batches, depending on the size of your air fryer.)
