# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 pound fresh sweet potatoes, washed and peeled
02 -
1½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
→ Seasoning Blend
03 -
½ teaspoon fine sea salt (adjust to preference)
04 -
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
05 -
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
06 -
¼ teaspoon sweet paprika
# Instructions:
01 -
Wash and slice your sweet potatoes into evenly-sized strips, about ¼-inch thick. Keeping them uniform ensures they'll all cook at the same rate and get perfectly crispy.
02 -
Place the cut fries in a large mixing bowl and drizzle the olive oil over them. Toss everything together until each piece is lightly coated with oil.
03 -
Mix your salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in a small bowl. Sprinkle this seasoning blend over the oiled potatoes and toss well to distribute the spices evenly.
04 -
Arrange the seasoned fries in your air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 375°F for 12-14 minutes in a basket-style air fryer, or 350°F for 8-10 minutes in a toaster-style model. Give the basket a good shake halfway through cooking time. They're done when golden brown and crispy on the outside.
05 -
Transfer to a serving plate immediately while they're hot and crispy. Garnish with fresh cilantro or grated parmesan cheese if you like, and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
Store leftover fries in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container

To freeze: spread cooled fries on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to freezer bags
03 -
