Ingredients
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
1½ tbsp olive oil
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese blend)
4 strips cooked bacon, chopped
2 green onions, thinly sliced
¼ cup ranch dressing (or sour cream)
Optional: Jalapeño slices, chopped tomatoes, or avocado
Directions
- Oven Method:
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss sweet potato fries with olive oil and salt. Spread fries on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until crispy. Add toppings and cheese, then bake or broil an additional 3-4 minutes until melted. Garnish and serve immediately. - Air Fryer Method:
Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Toss fries in olive oil and salt. Air fry for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway, until crispy. Transfer fries to a plate, add toppings, and quickly melt cheese under a broiler (1-2 mins). Serve immediately.
Notes
- Want extra crunch? Use cornstarch (1 tbsp per 2 potatoes) before tossing in oil for even crispier fries.
No sweet potatoes? You can swap them for regular fries or frozen fries for convenience.
Serving idea: These pair perfectly with a side of ranch, chipotle mayo, or melted queso for dipping!
