Calories: 88kcal
Equipment
- 1 Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes You may only need 1 sweet potato (depending on the size of the sweet potatoes and size of air fryer.)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 tsp salt *Do not add if making for a baby
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 200℃ / 390℉
- Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes, then pat them dry and cut off the ends.
- Slice each potato in half lengthways. Place the cut side down on your chopping board and slice at an angle to create wedges. For medium-sized potatoes, cutting each half into thirds or quarters works well.
- Add the sweet potato wedges to a mixing bowl, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with smoked paprika (and salt if using). Toss well to coat.
- Arrange the wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding — you may need to cook in batches.
- Air fry for 15-18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking, until the wedges are golden and crispy.

Notes
Once cooked, let the wedges sit on the tray for a couple of minutes before serving — this helps them crisp up even more.
Seasoning Ideas: For a flavour twist, try sumac for a citrusy touch, cinnamon for sweetness, or Italian herbs for a herby kick
Crispiness Tip: Preheating your air fryer and avoiding overcrowding will help achieve the crispiest results.
OVEN BAKE: Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (390°F) for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through.
