Table of Contents

These air fryer sweet potato slices are crispy on the edges, tender inside, and packed with natural caramelized sweetness!

2 medium sweet potatoes, washed & sliced (¼-inch thick)

1 ½ tbsp olive oil or melted butter

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

½ tsp smoked paprika (optional)

½ tsp garlic powder (optional)

½ tsp cinnamon or maple syrup drizzle (for a sweeter version)

Preheat Air Fryer – Set to 375°F (190°C) for a crisp texture.

Prepare Sweet Potatoes – Slice into ¼-inch rounds (keep skin on for extra crispiness).

Season – Toss slices with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional spices.

Air Fry – Arrange slices in a single layer in the basket. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.

Serve – Enjoy warm as a snack or side dish! Add a dip like garlic aioli, honey mustard, or a sprinkle of feta cheese.

Even Slices – Keep thickness uniform for even cooking.

Don’t Overcrowd – Cook in batches if needed to allow proper air circulation.

For Extra Crispiness – Soak slices in cold water for 20 minutes, then pat dry before air frying.

Sweet or Savory – Adjust seasoning based on preference (try cayenne for spice or maple syrup for sweetness).
