Tried to make air fryer sweet potato fries for my kid's school lunch and had to pick between crispy or healthy.

I had to choose between coating them in a little oil for crunch or just using a dry spice rub to cut calories. I went with the dry rub, and they came out a bit tough and chewy, not the crispy treat I promised. Anyone have a trick to get them crispy without drowning them in oil?

Try a tiny bit of oil and cornstarch.

Isn't this just the classic parent trap, trying to balance health with happiness?

Yeah I used to see it that way too. But after seeing how my sister's kids act when they get a good mix of both, it changed my mind. What do you think works best?
