Instructions

Prep the sweet potatoes: Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Season: In a large bowl, toss the cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Preheat air fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat for 2-3 minutes.
Cook: Place the seasoned cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even crispiness.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra crispy cubes, soak the sweet potato cubes in cold water for 30 minutes before air frying. Dry thoroughly before seasoning.
