Recipe Notes
- Spray Oil: Make sure to use a spray oil that's safe for air fryers. Aerosolized cooking sprays can damage the non-stick coating on your air fryer basket.
- Cook Time: All air fryers behave differently, even 2 of the same make and model in the same kitchen. Keep a close eye on your sweet potato fries and adjust your cook time as needed to avoid overcooking or burning your fries.
