Equipment

Ingredients

  • 16 oz frozen sweet potato fries
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil optional
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper optional
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400 F for about 5 minutes.
  • Place the frozen sweet potato fries in a large bowl. Add the olive oil (optional). Toss to evenly coat. Add the black pepper, and garlic powder (if desired). Toss again to coat. At this time you can add any additional seasonings you like.
  • Place in the air fryer basket. It's okay if the fries overlap a bit, but don’t overcrowd. Cook for 10 minutes. Toss and cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the fries are crispy.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Tips for Air Frying Frozen Sweet Potato Fries
  • Do not thaw the fries! Keep them frozen before placing them in the air fryer.
  • Use quality frozen sweet potato fries.
  • Preheat the air fryer for a crispy finish. If you choose not to preheat the oven you will likely need to add an additional 3-4 minutes to the cooking time.
  • Depending on whether you use waffle fries, shoestring fries, steak fries, or curly fries the cooking time will vary slightly. Add more cooking time for thicker fries, and less time for thin-cut fries.
