Instructions

1. Prep the Sweet Potatoes

• Wash, peel, and cut the sweet potatoes into even-sized fries—about ¼-inch thick. Try to keep the pieces uniform to ensure even cooking.
• Soak the fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes (or up to 1 hour). This helps remove excess starch and results in crispier fries. Don’t skip this step if you want that restaurant-style crunch!

2. Dry and Coat

• After soaking, drain and pat the sweet potatoes completely dry with a towel.
• Toss them in a large bowl with cornstarch, making sure they get a light, even coating. This is the key to a crispy texture!
• Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.

3. Bake or Air Fry

To Bake:

• Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the fries in a single layer, leaving space between them.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until fries are golden and crisp.

To Air Fry:

• Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
• Air fry in batches (don’t overcrowd the basket) for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Keep an eye on them—they can go from perfect to too dark quickly!
