Air Fryer Sweet Potato Wedges
Description
The Air Fryer Sweet Potato Wedges recipe starts with medium sweet potatoes peeled or unpeeled and cut into wedges, tossed with cornstarch and a combination of paprika, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Olive oil helps the seasoning adhere and promotes browning. Cooking the wedges in a single layer at 390°F ensures even crisping with golden, crispy exteriors and soft interiors. Flipping halfway through the 20 to 25-minute cook time encourages uniform texture and color.
The seasoning mix provides a gentle warmth from paprika and cinnamon, while brown sugar adds a hint of caramel-like sweetness. Salt is sprinkled after air frying to enhance the overall flavor. These wedges serve well alongside main dishes or as a warm snack.
