Equipment

  • Air Fryer We use this Ninja Max XL air fryer almost daily! A fantastic cooking tool for quick dinners.
  • Air Fryer Disposable Liners Helps make air fryer clean-up quick and easy. Food cooks crisply and evenly every time!
  • Mixing Bowls These stainless steel mixing bowls are an essential cooking tool for every kitchen.
  • Rubber Scrapers These Cuisinart rubber scraper spatulas are fantastic for fillings, batters, and so much more!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. sweet potatoes about 2 large potatoes, rinsed and peeled
  • 2 Tablespoons avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika or regular paprika

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer according to owners manual. (For Ninja Max air fryer users, this is 3 minutes.)
  • Rinse and peel the sweet potatoes. Slice potatoes into long wedges that are about 1/2" thick.
  • Add the potatoes to a mixing bowl and drizzle with the oil and sprinkle on the garlic salt, ground pepper and smoked paprika. Toss together with a rubber scraper so the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
  • Add the potato wedges to the preheated air fryer. Cook at 400 degrees for 7 minutes. After 7 minutes give the basket a toss to turn the fries. Cook for another 7-8 minutes at 400 degrees. Fries will be slightly browned on the edges and outside, but cooked through completely.
  • Serve right away with your favorite dipping sauce.
