Ingredients

2 servings

1 lb sweet potato (about 2 small/medium)
1 ½ tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
¾ tsp kosher salt (plus additional to taste)
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

Scrub the sweet potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (peeling is optional; we leave our peels on).
Place in a large bowl and toss with the oil, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Place in the air fryer basket and air fry at 400°F for about 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The potatoes should be dark in spots on the outside and tender inside; check a few minutes early just to be safe as all air fryers are different. Serve warm, with a sprinkle of salt to taste.
