FAQ's
Yes, if you don't have an air fryer you can easily make these in your oven. Just line a baking sheet with parchment paper and bake at the temperature specified and time in the recipe.
Yes, if you want to use Russet potatoes you can use those in place of sweet potatoes.
Yes, if you don't want the skins on, you can peel them. I enjoy eating the skin because it has antioxidants and fiber, plus I'm too lazy to peel them!
Try serving these with anything you'd serve French fries with! They are delicious on their own as an appetizer. You can also serve with burgers, steaks, or more. Try my Healthy Lamb Burgers or Garlic Herb Beef Tenderloin Steak.
If you have extras, you can store in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days. You can reheat them by warming them back up the oven or air fryer on a warm setting or at 350°F.
