I love using the air fryer. While a traditional deep fryer cooks by using lots of oil, the air fryer uses a heating element and a fan to help circulate hot air. This hot air is what cooks the food and it's important to note that everything will be a bit healthier when served from an air fryer versus deep frying. Less oil, fewer calories, and fewer fats.

Air Fryer Frozen Sweet Potato Fries

This easy side dish is made in less than 20 minutes. If you're looking for something other than regular fries, grab a bag of sweet potato fries the next time you're in the freezer section.

Sweet potatoes are high in Vitamin A and also have more fiber than regular fries.

For best results, make sure you follow a few simple steps during the prep and cooking process.

First, make sure you don't allow the fries to thaw before cooking them. You want to place them into the air fryer basket directly from the freezer.

Second, ensure you're placing the sweet potato fries in a single layer, with a little room in between each fry. Leaving room in between the sweet potato fries allows more air to circulate and for the fries to get crispy.

Third, while not all air fryers offer a preheating option, it's best to turn on the air fryer and allow it to heat up for a few minutes before adding the fries to the basket.

NOTE: All air fryers cook differently. This recipe was made using a 5.8qt Cosori air fryer. Cooking time may vary among different manufactured air fryers.

Yes! Store any leftover fries in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat the fries, preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F, place the fries in a single layer (leaving room in between them) and heat for 2-3 minutes or until reheated.

What dipping sauces should I use with sweet potato fries?

I love to use classic ketchup, but you can also use honey mustard sauce, Ranch dressing, or even a spicy mustard sauce.
