🍠What Makes This Recipe So Good
Air fryer sweet potatoes are super easy and totally hands-off. Unlike methods that give you super soft sweet potato skins, the air fryer gives you sweet potatoes that are wonderfully crispy on the outside, but still tender and fluffy on the inside. Using the air fryer will make your holiday cooking SO much easier! This frees up your oven for your roast turkey, pecan pie, acorn squash with maple butter, or finishing your sous vide brisket.
💠Chef’s Tips
I tested this method at a higher temperature for a shorter time, and at this temperature but with oil and salt rubbed into the skins of the potatoes. Both times, the sweet potatoes ended up burnt. Your experience may vary especially depending on your specific air fryer, but I highly recommend the time and temperature outlined below! Sweet potatoes are super versatile, whether you cook them in the air fryer or with another method. Serve them with a little butter, salt, and pepper, or with butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, and chopped pecans. Top them with BBQ chicken or taco meat. Whip them into a creamy side dish, or enjoy them all on their own. You seriously can’t go wrong with this gluten-free, low-carb, paleo, Whole30-compliant root veggie.
