How long to cook frozen taquitos in air fryer?
In fact, it only takes 7 minutes if you set your air fryer at 400ºF (204ºC), although it might differ between air fryer models by 1-2 minutes. That’s because the power of the equipment varies from model to model.
Another consideration is how crunchy you want your taquitos, they might be crispy once they are a golden brown color. Some people prefer softer, but in general, when they are frozen and right after cooking, they get a super crispy texture.
