Air Fryer Baked Sweet Potatoes


  • Author: Chef Clara
  • Total Time: 37 minute
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Optional toppings: butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, or yogurt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    • Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt.
    • Pat them dry with a towel, and pierce each sweet potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.

  2. Season the Potatoes

    • Lightly rub the sweet potatoes with olive oil to coat them evenly.
    • Sprinkle with salt to enhance their natural flavor.

  3. Preheat the Air Fryer

    • Set your air fryer to 370°F (190°C) and preheat it for 5 minutes.

  4. Cook the Sweet Potatoes

    • Place the prepared sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer for even cooking.
    • Cook at 370°F (190°C) for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time.
    • Check for doneness by inserting a fork or knife into the center of a potato—it should slide in easily when they’re fully cooked.

  5. Serve

    • Allow the sweet potatoes to cool slightly before slicing them open.
    • Add your favorite toppings, such as butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, or a dollop of yogurt. Serve and enjoy!
