Air Fryer Sweet Potato Wedges is the perfect side! They have a crispy exterior and come out beautifully golden brown every time.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F for 5 minutes.
- Rinse sweet potatoes in water and let them air dry or pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Use a sharp knife and slice the ends of each sweet potato.
- Cut them into similar-sized wedges (lengthwise) so they cook evenly, and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Combine salt, pepper, paprika, cinnamon, and garlic powder into a seasoning mix in a separate medium bowl.
- Pour olive oil over the wedges and toss them to lightly coat.
- Pour seasoning blend over the wedges and toss them together to coat evenly.
- Arrange sweet potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure wedges are not touching. You may need to cook wedges in batches depending on how many you make.
- Air fry sweet potato wedges at 350 degrees F for 8 minutes, tossing the wedges halfway through the cooking process.
- Serve these sweet wedges while hot.
