Making the frozen sweet potato fries in the air fryer

  1. First, preheat the air fryer to 400F.
  2. Now, once the air fryer is up to temp, place a layer of frozen sweet potato fries in the basket. Do not crowd them but you should get a least a serving and a half with a normal size air fryer.
  3. Place the basket back in then set the time to 15 minutes.
  4. Then, you are going to want to give the basket a good shake every 5 minutes. The water from the frozen fries will make the sweet potato try to to stick. Shaking allows the release before all the water has evaporated.
  5. After, the shake at 10 minutes gauge how done the fries are. Depending on the power of your air fryer that extra 5 minutes may be too much and you only need 3 minutes to finish the fries.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How long does it take to air fry frozen sweet potato fries?

This recipe will take 12-15 minutes to cook your fries from frozen to done depending on your air fryer.

Why are my frozen sweet potato fries soggy?

This depends on two things. Were they soggy when they came out of the air fryer or were they crispy then became limp?

People promise crispy sweet potato fries but that’s almost impossible due to the fiber in the sweet potatoes. You can spray them with oil but you’re just wasting spray because they were flash fried before they were frozen.

The fries should come out crispy then go limp. If they are never crispy check the inside for doneness because maybe you had the heat too low in the air fryer or the temperature is off.

What is the best air fryer temp for frozen fries?

You want to have a high temperature because you want to evaporate the water. If you don’t, instead of air frying the potatoes will steam and resemble a baked potato.
