For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the fries before baking. Experiment with different types of cheese! Pepper jack, Gruyere, or even a blend of cheeses would be delicious. If you prefer, you can use pre-cooked bacon bits to save time. For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the cheese before broiling. Ensure the fries are thoroughly cooked and crisp before adding the toppings to prevent a soggy final product.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)
02
StepCook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp and evenly browned, about 8-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels to remove excess grease; crumble into small pieces. (10 minutes)
03
StepSpread the frozen French fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for optimal crisping. (2 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven until golden brown and crisp, approximately 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through for even cooking. (20 minutes)
05
StepRemove fries from the oven. Turn on the broiler to high. Keep a close watch to prevent burning. (2 minutes)
06
StepEvenly sprinkle the baked fries with shredded Cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon, ensuring every fry receives a generous topping. (2 minutes)
07
StepBroil under the preheated broiler until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden, about 1-2 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning! (2 minutes)
08
StepRemove from the broiler and serve immediately with your favorite ranch dressing for dipping. (2 minutes)
