Equipment Needed:

• Air Fryer

Ingredients (Full recipe located in recipe card below):

• Sweet Potatoes - You will need one large sweet potato.
• Olive Oil - I used organic extra virgin olive oil.
• Salt - I use a little salt. You can salt to taste if you prefer.
• Cinnamon - A little cinnamon goes a long way!

Air Fryer Instructions:

1. Slice the sweet potato into ¼ inch thick potato rounds.

2. To a medium bowl, add the olive oil, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well blended.

3. Add the sweet potato slices to the bowl and toss until well coated.

4. Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

5. Once the air fryer is ready, add the sweet potato slices to the air fryer in a single layer and cook for 15 minutes. Flip the slices halfway through.

6. Once done and the sweet potato slices are soft in the middle and slightly browned on the outside, remove them from the air fryer, let cool, then enjoy!

What To Serve With Air Fryer Sweet Potato Slices:

For dipping, these sweet potato rounds go great with my spicy garlic aioli, sriracha aioli, or ketchup. For dinner, these go great with air fryer sirloin steak, easy air fryer fried chicken or air fryer thin chicken breast.

Recipe Variations And Substitutions:

I kept this recipe simple, however, you can try different seasonings. For extra flavor, add garlic power and ground black pepper. For a little spice, you can add a little chili powder or smoked paprika.

Storage And Reheating Instructions:

• Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3 days.
• Reheat in a preheated air fryer at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 2 to 4 minutes.

Pro Tips:

• The air fryer used in this recipe was the Instant Vortex 6 quart. Since all air fryers cook differently, you may need to cook these for less or a little more time depending on what air fryer you use and the thickness of the slices. Always check on your food halfway through the cooking process.
• Be sure to slice the potatos so that they are ¼ inch thick. Any thinner and you may end up with hard chips.
• When slicing the sweet potatoes, be sure each slice is the same thickness for even cooking.
