Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Essential for crispiness
  • 1 teaspoon paprika Adds flavor
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Enhances the flavor
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: fresh herbs for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato pieces with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the sweet potato bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded for optimal crispness.
  2. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to ensure even browning, until the edges are crispy and golden brown.
  3. Remove from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

For best results, place the sweet potato bites in a single layer; overcrowding can lead to steaming instead of crisping. Experiment with dips for added flavor.
