Equipment
- air fryer
Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet Potatoes, peeled
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
Instructions
- Cut the sweet potatoes into even 1/4-inch thick sticks. Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then drain and pat completely dry with paper towels. This step is key for crispy fries.
- Place the dried sweet potato sticks in a large bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss until evenly coated. Add olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cinnamon, salt, and pepper, and toss again.
- Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for 3 minutes.
- Spread the fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, working in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding. Cook at 380°F for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes.
- Increase the temperature to 400°F and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes until the edges are crispy and lightly charred. Serve immediately.
