Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Optional: Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

Prep the Sweet Potatoes: Start by peeling the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking. Rinse the cubes under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

    Season the Cubes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the sweet potato cubes are well coated in the seasoning.

      Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes. This step ensures that your sweet potatoes will become crispy and cook evenly.

        Air Fry the Sweet Potatoes: Place the seasoned sweet potato cubes in the air fryer basket. Spread them out in a single layer to promote even cooking. You may need to do this in batches if your air fryer is small.

          Cooking Time: Air fry the sweet potato cubes for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure they cook evenly. The sweet potatoes should be golden brown on the outside and tender on the inside when done.

            Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the sweet potatoes from the air fryer. Optionally, garnish them with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and flavor. Serve warm as a side dish or snack!
