Preparation
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into evenly sized fries.
  3. In a bowl, toss the cut fries with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Cooking
  1. Cook the fries for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning.
  2. They are done when the edges are golden and the centers feel tender.

Notes

For best results, avoid crowding the fries in the air fryer. Use the air fryer for reheating for improved crispness.
