Peel the rutabagas using a vegetable peeler. Cut them into fry shapes, about 1/4 inch thick.
Rinse the cut rutabaga fries in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry thoroughly with a kitchen towel.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the rutabaga fries to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 3 minutes.
Arrange the seasoned rutabaga fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren't overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the fries for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, remove the fries from the air fryer and let them cool for a minute or two before serving.
Serve immediately with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce or as a snack or side dish.
