1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Preheating ensures even cooking and crispiness.

2. Arrange the taquitos in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to allow hot air to circulate properly around each taquito.

3. Cook the taquitos at 400°F for 8-10 minutes. Halfway through cooking, use tongs to flip the taquitos. This helps in achieving an even crisp on all sides.

4. Check for doneness after 8 minutes. If they aren’t crispy enough, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

5. Carefully remove the taquitos from the air fryer using tongs. Place them on a serving plate.

6. Serve with dipping sauces like salsa, guacamole, or sour cream. These add extra flavor and make the snack more enjoyable.
