Notes
- Be careful when peeling the sweet potatoes. Use caution when working with a sharp vegetable peeler.
- Use a sharp knife to dice sweet potatoes as evenly as possible. A nice small, even dice will cook more evenly. Dice into ½ inch cubes.
- If your sweet potatoes are diced larger than pictured, then you will likely need to add more time to cook them to a crispy outside with a soft center.
- Cook time may vary depending on your specific air fryer. All brands vary and may require different timing, so experiment!
- If cooking in multiple batches, be sure to check on the remaining batches early, as they may cook more quickly.
