Baking Process
Step 8: Initial Baking Bake the shaped tots for 20 minutes without disturbing them. This initial cooking time allows the exterior to set and begin crisping.
Step 9: Flip and Final Baking Carefully flip each tot using a thin spatula, then continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes until the tots are golden brown and crispy on all sides. Total baking time should be 30-35 minutes depending on your oven and desired level of crispiness.
Step 10: Serve Immediately Remove from oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauces while the tots are still hot and crispy.
