Air Fryer Sweet Potato Wedges
These air fryer sweet potato wedges are seasoned with garlic and air-fried until crispy and caramelized, creating a sweet and savory side or snack perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato OR 2 small sweet potatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
Instructions
- Wash the sweet potatoes and cut them into wedges. Preheat the air fryer to 380 degrees.
- Add the sweet potato wedges, oil, and seasonings to a large mixing bowl and stir or toss until evenly coated.
- Place the wedges in a single layer in the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes. Then, give them a good shake and continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes until crispy on the outside and fork-tender.
- If the wedges aren't fully cooked and crispy, give them another 3 minutes.
Notes
Storage
- Refrigerate for up to 5 days in an airtight container.
- Chill the wedges, then freeze them for up to 3 months in an airtight, freezer-safe container.
- Defrost if frozen and bake at 375 for 3 to 5 minutes until crispy again.
- There's no need to peel the sweet potatoes before air-frying them. However, you can if you prefer.
- Select sweet potatoes that are firm and have no markings or blemishes on the skin. The skin shouldn't look shriveled or wrinkly, either.
- Preheat your air fryer to ensure even cooking and accurate cooking times. It only takes about 5 minutes, and it's so worth it!
- Coating the wedges in oil eliminates the need to brush your basket with oil.
