Crispy Sweet Potato Fries in the Air Fryer

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 medium to large sweet potato
• 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• Salt to taste
• Pepper to taste

  or any seasonings you like

Instructions

• 1 Wash and peel the sweet potato. If you prefer, you can leave the skin on for
  added texture and nutrition.
• 2 Cut the sweet potato into evenly sized strips or wedges, ensuring they are of
  uniform thickness. This will help them cook evenly.
• 3 In a large bowl, place the sweet potato strips.
• 4 Drizzle the olive oil over the sweet potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated.
• 5 Sprinkle the cornstarch over the sweet potatoes and toss them to coat. The
  cornstarch will help make the fries extra crispy.
• 6 Season the sweet potato fries with salt, pepper, or any other seasonings of your
  choice. You can get creative with spices like paprika, garlic powder, or cayenne
  pepper for extra flavor.
• 7 Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
• 8 Once the air fryer is preheated, carefully place the seasoned sweet potato fries
  in the air fryer basket. Ensure they are in a single layer and not overcrowded,
  as this will allow them to crisp up properly.
• 9 Air fry at 380°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket or flipping the
  fries halfway through the cooking time. This helps ensure even cooking and
  crispiness.
• 10 Check the sweet potato fries for crispiness at the end of the cooking time. If
  they aren't as crispy as you'd like, you can continue air frying for an
  additional 2-3 minutes.
• 11 Once the sweet potato fries are crispy and golden brown, remove them from the
  air fryer.
• 12 Let them cool for a minute or two, and then serve them immediately while they
  are still hot and crunchy.
• 13 Enjoy your homemade crispy sweet potato fries as a delightful snack or side dish
  with your favorite dipping sauce.
