Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
Slice the peeled sweet potatoes into ¼ to ½-inch thick strips.
Add oil and sliced potatoes into a bowl, and toss to coat.
Add ½ teaspoon salt and paprika to sliced potatoes, and toss to coat.
Line the air fryer basket with a paper liner, then place sweet potatoes inside in an even layer.
Cook for 19 to 21 minutes or until edges are crispy, mixing/flipping halfway through cook time.
Top with additional salt and serve.

Make sure to check your air fryer manual for cook time guidelines for your specific model, as times and temperatures vary depending on the type of air fryer you have.
To cut the peeled sweet potatoes, cut off the skinny ends with a sharp knife and then cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise. This will make it easier to lay them flat on a cutting board and cut them into long slices. The thinner you cut them, the more crispy your air fryer fries will be.
Don’t overcrowd the air-fryer basket, or you may end up steaming your fries rather than crisping them. If you have lots of fries, you can make a second batch if needed.
