Air Fryer Sweet Potato Fries
Air Fryer Sweet Potato Fries are perfectly crispy, super simple to make, and a healthy side dish for busy weeknights. It is so quick to cut sweet potatoes into fries, season them up, and pop them in the air fryer.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb. sweet potatoes peeled or peel on
- 1 Tbsp. oil avocado or olive
- ½ - ¾ tsp. salt
- ¼ tsp. paprika optional
- ¼ tsp. garlic powder optional
Instructions
- Heat air fryer to 375°F for at least 3 minutes.
- Cut potatoes into long strips (4-6 inches in length) that are ½” wide by ¼” thick.
- Add fries to a large bowl and drizzle with oil. Toss fries until well coated.
- Sprinkle with salt, paprika, and garlic powder. Toss fries until completely coated in the seasonings.
- Place fries in a single layer into the air fryer basket with none of the fries touching. (If you're using a 6-quart air fryer you'll need to cook the fries in 2 batches in order to have enough room to do this.)*
- Cook fries for 12-14 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Serve with ketchup, Sriracha Mayo, or Remoulade Sauce.
Notes
Meal Prep and Storage
- To Prep-Ahead: You can slice the sweet potatoes into fries the day before to save time.
- To Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 to 5 days.
- To Freeze: It is best to freeze the fries in a single layer on a sheet pan for a few hours. Then, transfer the potatoes to a freezer-safe bag and keep for up to 6 to 7 months.
- To Reheat: Pop the sweet potatoes back in the air fryer at 350℉ for about 5 minutes.
