Turnip Fries Air Fryer
Air-fryer turnip fries are my healthy take on classic French fries! Roasted until golden brown all over, air fried turnips taste amazing dipped in sugar free ketchup or with a homemade mayonnaise.

Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 turnips 450g once peeled
- 1 tablespoon olive oil avocado oil or coconut oil
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ black pepper
- ⅓ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Peel and remove the ends of the turnips. Cut into slices then ½ inch fries. Make sure the fries are equal size so they cook evenly. If they release moisture, pat dry with a paper towel.
- Mix the olive oil, spices and seasoning together in a mixing bowl.
- Toss the fries in the mix so they are fully coated.
- Preheat the air fryer to 180C / 350F.
- Place the fries in one single layer in the air fryer basket and air fry for 8 minutes or until the tops are golden. Note - if your air fryer is small, you may need to cook 2 batches.
- Shake the basket or flip the fries and remove any small ones that may look cooked. Then, cook for a further 5 - 7 minutes or until evenly browned and cooked to your liking. Serve immediately.
Notes
5.4g net carbs per portion. Makes 4 portions @ circa ½ cup each.
If you have a round (smaller) air fryer, I recommend that you air fry in 2 batches.
Best served immediately as the fries will soften as they cool.
No air fryer? Oven instructions are included in the post above.
Reheat in the oven or for 5 minutes @ 200C / 400F or in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes.
Optional flavour add-ons:
