Ingredients
  

  • 3 large, sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil, or any high-smoke-point oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer: Set it to 380°F (193°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Prep the sweet potatoes: Peel and slice them into even ¼-inch thick fries.
  • Soak and dry (optional but helpful): If you want extra crispy fries, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then dry well.
  • Season the fries: Toss fries with avocado oil, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until coated evenly.
  • Air fry: Arrange in a single layer in the basket—don’t overcrowd! Cook for 18–20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5–7 minutes.
  • Serve: Remove once golden brown and crispy. Serve right away with your favorite dip.
