INGREDIENTS:
4 medium sweet potatoes
Salt to taste
Optional toppings: butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, or your favorite toppings
INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1: PREPARE THE SWEET POTATOES
– Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a towel.
– Prick each sweet potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.
STEP 2: SEASON THE SWEET POTATOES
– Rub the sweet potatoes with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated. Sprinkle salt over them to taste.
STEP 3: AIR FRY THE SWEET POTATOES
– Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
– Place the sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
– Cook the sweet potatoes for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time, until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
STEP 4: SERVE
– Once cooked, carefully remove the sweet potatoes from the air fryer. Let them cool for a few minutes before slicing them open.
– Add your favorite toppings such as butter, cinnamon, or brown sugar, and enjoy!
