Start by washing and peeling the sweet potatoes. Ensure they are dry before moving on to the next step.
Cut the sweet potatoes into long, thin strips resembling the shape of fries. Make sure the strips are relatively uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
Place the sweet potato fries in a large bowl and drizzle them with olive oil. Toss the fries gently to coat them evenly.
Then, season with salt and pepper and any other spices you want to use.
Arrange the seasoned sweet potato fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding the basket to allow proper airflow and crispy results.
Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 14-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time.
Serve the fries immediately while they are still hot and crispy.

You can add more spices like paprika or garlic powder, if you like. Also, if you have any fresh herbs like chives or cilantro, this can add a nice pop of green and more flavor, but it’s not necessary.
