Ingredients

  • 1 Large sweet potato
  • 2 tablespoons of salted butter; melted
  • 1 teaspoon of paprika
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dry thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ black pepper

Instructions

  1. Step one: Wash and peel the sweet potato. You can certainly use your potato without peeling; just ensure the potato(es) are clean.
  2. Step two: slice sweet potato. Easily slice the peeled sweet potato in equal rounds or close in other to cook evenly.
  3. Step three: season sweet potato slices. I used butter, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to season. First, melt and sprinkle the melted butter, then the spices. Then use a silicone spatula or hand to mix well. The seasoning ingredients created a little crust – yum! On the other hand, you can keep it simple and do just salt and pepper.
  4. Step four: air fry sweet potato slices. Set the air fryer to 350 and set the time to 15 minutes. Lay the seasoned sweet potato slices in the air fryer basket, cook in the air fryer for the specified time, turning halfway. If not perfectly cooked, you can obviously add additional time to finish cooking  or perhaps crisp up more.

Notes

You do not have to peel sweet potatoes.

Melt the butter in the microwave. I used salted butter.

The exact length of time to air fry sweet potato slices typically depends on how thick or thin the slices are.

You can easily make sweet potato slices into sweet potato chips by slicing them thinner with a mandolin or a potato slicer.

This recipe is best enjoyed as soon as they are made or on the same day.

Use the herbs and spices you like to season sweet potato slices. However, I suggest you do not skip the oil. You can substitute butter with olive oil.
