Ingredients
- 1 large sweetpotato or 2 medium sweetpotatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon each: black pepper garlic powder, onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Pre-heat air-fryer to 400 degrees F.
- Wash the sweetpotato and cut into 1/2 “ cubes (leaving the peel on).
- Toss with olive oil, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
- Cook sweetpotato cubes in the air-fryer for 12-15 minutes, shaking once midway, until the cubes are golden and crisp.
Notes
Pro-Tips:
- Don’t overcrowd the air-fryer, cook in two batches if necessary.
- Eat them right away or refrigerate for up to 4 days. If you want them hot & crispy from the fridge, reheat them in a 400 degree F air-fryer for 3-4 minutes.
- If using an oven, cook the sweetpotato cubes at 425 degrees F for 25-30 minutes, flipping midway.
