Best Paleo Air Fryer Sweet Potato Fries
How to Make It
Step 1
Peel the potatoes, then cut the potatoes into 3 ½” sections. You can peel the skins onto a paper towel to crumble them up and toss them when you are done for easy clean-up. If the potatoes are large and long, you may be able to cut the potatoes in half.
Step 2
Slice each section into about ½” or slightly thicker slices. Then cut them in the other direction into ½” slices (or whatever thickness you did on the slices) to create uniform fries. Having uniform pieces is critical for the fries to cook evenly. You can even consider purchasing a fry cutter if this is a recipe you may make often and don’t have the best knife skills.
Step 3
Toss the sweet potato fries with olive oil and spices. Make sure that the spices are distributed uniformly throughout. A large bowl is best for this step.
Step 4
Divide the batch into two and cook the first half at 375 F for (190 C) for 15 mins. Repeat with the second batch. Serve immediately.
