Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes Can use orange or purple sweet potatoes for a twist.
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil Can substitute with olive oil or melted coconut oil.
  • ½ teaspoon salt Enhances sweetness; consider smoked salt for a unique flavor.
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper Try cayenne pepper for an extra kick.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F.
  2. Peel and slice the sweet potatoes as thinly as possible, about 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Place the sliced potatoes in a medium bowl and drizzle with the avocado oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Toss the sweet potato slices until they are evenly coated in oil and seasoning.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  2. Air fry at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes, adjusting time based on air fryer performance and slice thickness.
  3. At about halfway through, shake the basket or toss the chips lightly for even cooking.
  4. Once crisped, transfer to a cooling rack and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes.
  5. Serve with your favorite dip and enjoy.

Notes

For extra flavor, sprinkle spices like paprika or garlic powder before air frying. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain crunch.
