Do I really need to peel the sweet potatoes?

Okay, confession time - I've tried it both ways. Peeling gives you that perfect crisp texture we all love, but if you're in a rush, unpeeled works too (just scrub them really well). The skins add extra fiber but might make your fries a bit chewier.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Absolutely, Cook them completely, let them cool, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. To reheat, just pop them back in the air fryer at 350°F for 3-4 minutes - they'll crisp right back up.

Why are my fries soggy?

Oh honey, we've all been there. Usually it's because the basket was overcrowded or the oil wasn't evenly distributed. Next time, make sure your fries are in a single layer and give them a good shake halfway through cooking.
