How to Make Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes
1. Prepare the potatoes
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes well. Pat them completely dry. Cut them into roughly 1-inch cubes for faster cooking.
2. Season
Add the sweet potato cubes to a bowl. Toss with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika and black pepper until evenly coated.
3. Air fry
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes. Place the sweet potatoes in a single layer in the basket.
4. Cook until crispy
Air fry for 15–20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5–7 minutes. They're ready when the edges are golden and crispy and the centers are fork-tender.
5. Serve
Serve immediately as a side dish with chicken, salmon, burgers or roasted vegetables.
Easy Variations
Sweet: Add cinnamon and a little maple syrup after cooking.
Spicy: Add cayenne or chili powder.
Herby: Finish with dried rosemary or Italian seasoning.
Extra crispy: Avoid overcrowding the basket and cook in batches if necessary.
