Time Saving Tips
- For best results from your air fryer, always preheat it first. Hot air needs to be able to flow around the food right away so the outside can start to crisp up and seal in the moisture.
- Sweet potato fries can be air fried in advance and then re-crisped for just a few minutes if time is short or you’ve got a hungry crowd!
