Naturally sweet and full of fiber, sweet potato wedges make a satisfying snack or side. This low histamine version uses anti-inflammatory spices and skips nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. The result is a flavorful, gentle seasoning that enhances the sweet potato’s natural taste. Finished with fresh herbs, these wedges are a healthy, easy-to-digest alternative to traditional fries.

Ingredients Needed:

• 2 medium sweet potatoes: cut into wedges
• 1 ½ tbsp olive oil or avocado oil: for crispiness
• ¼ tsp turmeric or sweet paprika (non-smoked): gentle spice alternative
• ¼ tsp chives or green onion tops (optional): mild flavor boost
• ½ tsp salt (optional): add to taste
• ¼ tsp black pepper (optional): omit if sensitive
• Minced fresh parsley or cilantro: for garnish

How To Make Low Histamine Air Fryer Sweet Potato Wedges:

Preheat Air Fryer:
Set your air fryer to 375°F for 5 minutes.

Season the Wedges:
Add the sweet potato wedges to a large bowl. Drizzle with oil, salt, turmeric (or non-smoked paprika), and chives. Gently toss until coated evenly.

Cook Until Crispy:
Arrange the wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overlapping for best crisping. Air fry at 375°F for 10 minutes. Check for doneness. If not crispy enough, cook 2–5 minutes more.

Serve Fresh:
Sprinkle with minced parsley or cilantro and serve hot. Pair with a low histamine yogurt dip or drizzle of olive oil.

Recipe Tips:
