Peel the potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. Turn the halves onto their flat sides, then cut them into ¼-inch-thick planks. Cut each plank into ¼-inch-thick sticks.
In a large bowl, toss the potato sticks with the olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F. Add the sweet potatoes to the basket and air fry for 6 minutes. Gently shake the basket to stir the fries.
Increase the temperature to 400°F. Continue air frying for an additional 8 minutes until tender and crispy. Season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce.
