Ingredients and substitutions

  • Sweet potatoes – sweet potatoes are the star of this recipe but if you’re in a pinch, use another potato or low carb potato alternative of choice to make these delicious fries. 
  • Olive oil – use any neutral oil as a substitution for olive oil.
  • Smoked paprika – cayenne pepper, paprika or another spice of choice can be used. 
  • Garlic powder – garlic salt is a great alternative. If using garlic salt then be weary of any additional salt you add.
  • Salt (to taste)

Chipotle dipping sauce

  • Sour cream – unsweetened plain greek yogurt or light mayo can also be used in this recipe.
  • Adobo sauce – this sauce can be found from the can of chipotle peppers
  • Lemon juice – fresh or bottled lemon juice can be used in this recipe.
  • Salt (to taste)

What are the benefits of using an air fryer? 

An air fryer is a kitchen appliance that cooks a variety of foods using circulating hot air. Besides cooking dishes quicker than a conventional oven or deep fryer, there are many benefits to using an air fryer to cook. Here are some benefits to using an air fryer:

  • There is less oil used to cook recipes and less calories added to a meal
  • Overall cook time is reduced and dinner is served quicker
  • Low maintenance cooking strategy. Just turn on the timer and go!

Storing and reheating

I highly doubt you will have any leftover sweet potato fries but in case you do, here's how you can store them for later:

  • Divide the fries into portions or store all leftovers in an airtight container together
  • Place in the fridge for up to two days.
  • When ready to enjoy, cook using the air fryer instructions above.

Freezing sweet potatos

The best way to go about freezing sweet potatoes is by blanching them prior to cooking. So, if you have extra cut sweet potatoes, blanch them, and season if you'd like, then transfer into an airtight container of freezer bag. Store in the freezer for up to three months. When ready to enjoy, cook in the air fryer using the instructions in this recipe.
