Frozen Cauliflower Cheese
One of my favourite foods to air fry is frozen cauliflower. Over the last couple of months, we have shown you how to cook frozen cauliflower in air fryer, how to use the same type of frozen cauliflower to make an air fryer cauliflower cheese, but what we havenโt shown you is how to cook from frozen a full bag of already prepared and cooked frozen cauliflower cheese.
Just like you probably are now, I was curious to what frozen cauliflower cheese bags would be like, how well they would air fry, and if it would in fact be much quicker in the oven compared to the air fryer.
I was in Aldi and spotted these great big bags of frozen cauliflower cheese and bought a few bags so that I could test them out in the air fryer and see if they were any good.
And you know what? We loved them and were amazed by how good frozen cauliflower cheese is in the air fryer.

Can You Cook Cauliflower Cheese From Frozen?
Yes, you can cook cauliflower cheese from frozen. Frozen cauliflower cheese is amazing for reheating. I often make ahead extra cauliflower cheese when I am making some and then the leftovers can go in the freezer and be cooked from frozen.
Can You Cook Frozen Cauliflower Cheese In Air Fryer?
Yes, you can air fry frozen cauliflower cheese and you will love it. I much prefer the frozen cauliflower cheese in the bag vs the cauliflower cheese in a frozen container, because from a bag it cooks faster and easier.
Can You Buy Frozen Cauliflower Cheese?
Yes, you can buy frozen cauliflower cheese and it is really good for the air fryer. Many brands are realising we love frozen cauliflower cheese, so there is a lot of great choice.
For example, you can cook M&S frozen cauliflower cheese, Tesco frozen cauliflower cheese, or like we are using today Aldi frozen cauliflower cheese.
How Do You Cook Frozen Cauliflower Cheese?
When cooking frozen cauliflower cheese, you can do so in the air fryer, microwave or even in the slow cooker.
My personal preference is to load up frozen cauliflower cheese into an air fryer container and then let the air fryer do the hard work!

Frozen Cauliflower Cheese Air Fryer Ingredients
Cauliflower Cheese โ We used one bag of frozen cauliflower cheese in the air fryer. I donโt recommend more than one bag, as otherwise it wont all fit and it will take too long to air fry.
Cheese โ I also added extra cheese to the frozen cauliflower cheese. You could skip this step, but is there ever a time when you add too much cheese?
Can You Recommend An Air Fryer?
I often get asked which air fryers I recommend and which one I use. In 95% of our air fryer recipes, we use either the Philips Air Fryer XL or the Cosori XL because they are the best ones, we have found out of many air fryers we have tried over the years. You can click on the links above and read up on them.
Plus, we recommend you head over to our air fryer recipes category as we have more than 500 tried and tested everyday air fryer recipes and have been air frying for 10+ years.
How To Cook Frozen Cauliflower Cheese In Air Fryer?
- Dump. Letโs start with dumping your frozen cauliflower cheese into an air fryer container. Air fry for 25 minutes at 160c/320f or until starting to golden on top and the cauliflower is fully heated through.
- Cheese. Then finish with some extra cheese over the cauliflower cheese and cook for a further 3 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Serve. Your cauliflower cheese is now ready for serving.
How Long To Cook Frozen Cauliflower Cheese In Air Fryer?
We recommend 25 minutes to cook your cauliflower cheese from frozen in the air fryer. Plus, another 3 minutes if you wanted to add some grated cheese on the top to further melt on top.
Reheat Cauliflower Cheese In Air Fryer
If you are just wanting to reheat cauliflower cheese in the air fryer from leftovers in the fridge, we would recommend reducing the cook time to 8 minutes and then checking to see if it needs any longer.
