Air Fryer Baked Sweet Potatoes
This Air Fryer Baked Sweet Potatoes recipe uses medium-sized sweet potatoes rubbed with oil and kosher salt, then cooked in an air fryer at high temperature. The result is tender flesh with a slightly crisp, seasoned skin. Turning the potatoes halfway promotes even cooking. They are served open-faced and customizable with various toppings such as butter, cinnamon, or maple syrup.
