Air fryer sweet potato fries are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional deep-fried fries. They are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed with flavor. Here’s a simple recipe to make air fryer sweet potato fries:
Ingredients:
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly and peel them if desired.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into long, thin strips resembling fries. Make sure they are of similar size to ensure even cooking.
- Place the sweet potato strips in a large bowl and add olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the fries evenly with the seasoning.
- Arrange the seasoned sweet potato fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Cook the sweet potato fries in the air fryer for about 15-20 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Keep an eye on them as cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the fries and the efficiency of your air fryer.
- Once the sweet potato fries are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately.
You can enjoy the air fryer sweet potato fries as they are or pair them with your favorite dipping sauce like ketchup, aioli, or sriracha mayo. They make a great side dish or snack. Enjoy!
