Description

Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside — a quick, healthy, and delicious side dish or snack that’s ready in under 20 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Place sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 12–15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden and tender.
  4. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the basket.
  • Sprinkle with fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary before serving.
  • Try with cinnamon and brown sugar for a sweet version!
