Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to preheat for about 5 minutes.

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes: After peeling and cubing the sweet potatoes, place them in a large bowl.

      Season the Cubes: Drizzle the olive oil over the cubed sweet potatoes. Add garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Toss everything together until the cubes are evenly coated with the seasoning.

        Air Fry the Sweet Potatoes: Place the seasoned sweet potato cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding, which can prevent crisping.

          Cooking Time: Air fry the cubes for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time for even crispness. They are done when they are golden brown and fork-tender.

            Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, transfer the sweet potato cubes to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Enjoy them warm as a snack, side dish, or even a salad topper!
