Ingredients
- 1 bag of frozen sweet potato tots (about 16 ounces)
- Cooking spray (optional, but helps with extra crispiness)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Optional herbs and spices (such as paprika, garlic powder, or parsley)
Instructions
1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Preheating ensures even cooking and crispy results.
2. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3. Arrange the frozen sweet potato tots in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not overcrowded to allow even airflow.
4. Cook the tots for 10-12 minutes. Shake the basket or flip the tots halfway through cooking to ensure they cook evenly.
5. Check for doneness. The tots should be crispy and golden brown. If they need more time, cook in additional 2-minute increments until done.
6. Season with salt and pepper immediately after cooking, while still hot. Add any optional spices or herbs at this point for extra flavor.
Notes
For best results, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cooking in a single layer allows hot air to circulate evenly, giving you perfectly crispy tots.
