Ingredients
Fries
- 20 oz frozen sweet potato fries
- cooking spray or vegetable oil (optional)
- sea salt (optional)
Tangy Dipping Sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- 4 tbsp barbecue sauce
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for cooking the fries.
- Prepare Fries: Lightly toss the frozen sweet potato fries with cooking spray or a small amount of vegetable oil if you prefer extra crispiness; sprinkle sea salt if desired.
- Arrange Fries: Place the fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer with minimal overlap to allow even cooking and crisping.
- Cook Fries: Cook the fries for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to promote even browning. Check at 8-9 minutes to adjust time based on your air fryer model.
- Drain Fries: Once cooked, transfer the fries to a wire rack or paper towel to let them dry slightly and crisp up further before serving.
- Make Tangy Dipping Sauce: In a small bowl, combine Dijon mustard, honey, barbecue sauce, and mayonnaise. Stir well until smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Serve the hot sweet potato fries with the tangy dipping sauce for a delicious and satisfying snack or side.
Notes
- For extra crisp fries, lightly coat them with oil before air frying.
- Cooking times may vary by air fryer model; keep an eye on fries starting at 8 minutes.
- Using a wire rack helps fries stay crispy instead of soggy.
- The dipping sauce can be adjusted by adding more honey for sweetness or more mustard for tanginess.
- These fries can also be baked in a conventional oven at 425°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
