Looking to take your fries to the next level? Whether you’re craving something fancy for your next dinner party or just want to upgrade your weeknight snack, homemade truffle fries are always a good idea. These recipes are gluten-free, vegetarian (+ vegan if you skip the cheese), and surprisingly easy to make with a few gourmet pantry staples.

Made using premium Maison F. Crayssac Truffle Products, including truffle oil, truffle salts, truffle powder, and our rich truffle ketchup, these fries are packed with bold, earthy umami flavor and can be made with russet or sweet potatoes—or even frozen fries.

🥔 A Brief History of Truffle Fries

While no one knows exactly who invented truffle fries, they became popular in the early 2000s as a luxury twist on classic French fries. Originally featured on fine dining menus, this gourmet fry trend quickly took off and made its way into gastropubs, food trucks, and home kitchens. Most modern versions are topped with truffle oil and Parmesan, but today’s truffle fries come in all styles—and we’re here for all of them.

🍟 Make It From Scratch or Dress Up Frozen Fries

The beauty of these recipes? You can start with fresh-cut potatoes or save time by using store-bought frozen fries. Just bake or air-fry until crispy, then add your favorite Maison F. Crayssac truffle finish. It’s the perfect way to turn leftovers into something spectacular, or elevate a simple side into a centerpiece.
