Tangy Dipping Sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- 4 tbsp barbecue sauce

Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F to ensure even and crispy cooking of the sweet potato fries.
- Prepare Fries: Lightly toss the frozen sweet potato fries with cooking spray or vegetable oil if desired for extra crispiness. Sprinkle with sea salt if you like.
- Arrange Fries: Place the fries in a single layer inside the air fryer basket, ensuring minimal overlap for thorough cooking.

- Drain Fries: Once cooked, transfer the fries to a wire rack or paper towel to let them dry slightly and maintain crispiness before serving.

- Serve: Serve the hot sweet potato fries alongside the tangy dipping sauce for a perfect snack or side dish.
