How To Make Air Fryer Frozen Sweet Potato Fries

Step 1: Start by preheating your air fryer to 400 degrees F, for 3-5 minutes.

Step 2: Add your frozen sweet potato French fries to the air fryer basket, remembering not to crowd the fries. They should also be in a single layer to air fryer properly. Add a little bit of olive oil if desired. It will make them crispier.

Step 3: Set the cook time for 12-15 minutes.  About halfway through the air frying, either shake the basket or use tongs and flip the French fries.

Air Fryer Frozen Sweet Potato Fries Recipe Tips

• Keep a close watch. Due to the thickness of the fries and using a different air fryer, your cooking time may need to be adjusted.
• Don’t forget to flip. Flipping or shaking the fries will ensure that they cook properly and evenly. So, never skip flipping them over halfway through.
• Work in batches. If you are feeding a lot of people, you may need to work in batches. It’s important not to crowd the basket so the air can flow properly. Smaller batches are best.
• Play with seasonings. Feel free to add your favorite seasonings before you air fry frozen sweet potato fries. Simply sprinkle with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, or anything else you like.

Storing & Reheating

• Storing: Store leftover Air Fryer Frozen Sweet Potato Fries in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Allow them to cool completely before storing to maintain their texture.
• Reheating: Reheat the fries in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-5 minutes, or until crispy and heated through. You can also reheat them in an oven at 375°F for 5-7 minutes for a similar result.

Air Fryer Frozen Sweet Potato Fries Recipe Faqs

Can I use homemade sweet potato fries instead of frozen? Yes, you can use homemade sweet potato fries. Just make sure they are cut evenly and pre-seasoned to achieve a crispy texture in the air fryer.
