Instructions

  • Pre-heat the air fryer to 400 degrees F / 204 degrees C.
  • Remove taquitos from the packaging.

  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauces.

  • Preheat the oven to 400F / 200C.
  • Place the frozen taquitos on baking sheet and place in the warm oven.

Notes

  • The overall size of taquitos and the amount of filling can vary between brands, so watch closely the first time you make them and adjust the timing as needed. 
  • Don’t overlap the taquitos in air fryer basket. You may need to cook them in multiple batches. You’ll fit more in a square basket.
  • You may want to turn them over once half the time has passed or give the basket a shake to ensure they cook evenly.
  • For a crispier finish, spray with some cooking spray before cooking.
  • Air fryer temperatures can vary depending on the make and model. I recommend starting with less cooking time, checking for doneness, then adding more time as needed.
  • Store - keep leftovers inside the fridge for 3 days.
  • There are 8 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of this.
