- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika optional
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: additional seasonings cinnamon, cayenne, etc.
Prep the Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to ensure even cooking.
Season the Fries: In a mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato strips with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure the fries are evenly coated.
Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cook the Fries: Place the seasoned sweet potato fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. Cook until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Serve: Once cooked, remove the fries from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
- Customization: Feel free to experiment with different seasonings based on your preferences. Adding cayenne can give a spicy kick, while cinnamon can enhance the natural sweetness.
- Storage: Leftover fries can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the air fryer for a few minutes to regain their crispiness.
