Ingredients
  

For the Fries
  • 1 bag Frozen French Fries Choose those that promise an extra crispy finish.
For the Cheese Sauce
  • 4 tablespoons Butter Unsalted is recommended for controlling saltiness.
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour Can be swapped for gluten-free flour.
  • 1 cup Milk Any milk or dairy-free almond milk is fine.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Kosher salt is preferred for texture.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper Adjust according to spice preference.
  • 1 tablespoon Ranch Seasoning Powder A homemade blend can offer fresher flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper Add to control heat level.
  • 2 cups Shredded White Cheddar Cheese Opt for high-quality cheese for maximum flavor.

Equipment

  • Oven or Air Fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven or air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spread the frozen French fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or air fryer basket. Bake according to package instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
  3. In a saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat, then whisk in 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour and cook for about 2 minutes to create a roux. Gradually stir in 1 cup of milk until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, ranch seasoning, and cayenne.
  4. Reduce heat to low and stir in 2 cups of shredded white cheddar cheese until melted and creamy.
  5. Assemble the fries by placing them on a serving platter, pouring the cheese sauce over the top, and adding a sprinkle of cayenne. Serve immediately.
