Sweet potatoes – Any variety will work for this recipe. Beauregard and Jewel sweet potatoes are a couple of the most common, with good flavor, and dense, creamy flesh. Look for long, straight potatoes without any dark spots to create the best wedges.
Cheese – Use a dry cheese like Parmesan or Romano so you can grate them finely so they will easily adhere.
Seasoning & Variations – Try different seasoning mixes to give your sweet potato wedges your own signature! Try a DIY taco, fajita, or Southwest spice blend for a bit of heat, or opt for a sweeter fry and coat with cinnamon and brown sugar!

Once sweet potato wedges are prepped, they are ready to eat in just 10 minutes!

- While the air fryer is preheating, pat wedges dry and toss with oil.

Pro Tips and Tricks
- Sweet potato wedges are best when served fresh and hot!
- Soaking in water will remove the sticky starch and make for crispier wedges. Be sure to pat dry with paper towels before seasoning!
- Preheat the air fryer so that the initial heat blast will sear the outer edges.
- Cut wedges into uniform thicknesses so they will cook evenly. Air fry in single layers and don’t crowd the basket. You might have to cook in batches.
- To re-crisp leftover sweet potato wedges, preheat your Ninja or other brand air fryer to 350°F and cook for 5 minutes.
