Peel the rutabagas and slice them into thin sticks, roughly 1/4 inch thick, resembling the shape of traditional fries.
In a large bowl, combine the cut rutabaga fries with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Toss until all the fries are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Preheat the air fryer to 400Β°F (200Β°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place the seasoned rutabaga fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Work in batches if necessary to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
Cook the fries at 400Β°F (200Β°C) for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the fries are crispy and golden brown.
Once cooked, remove the fries from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve the fries immediately with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
