I like to make these for breakfast and eat them with eggs or add them to a breakfast taco.

To make things even easier, you can use precut sweet potato chunks. Most grocery stores sell them!

What you need to make these 

• 1 lb Sweet Potato: peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes, I used 2 potatoes, and it came out to about 3 cups
• Olive Oil: helps to cook the sweet potato chunks and prevents them from drying out
• Salt: ½ teaspoon worked perfectly for me, but adjust the amount to your taste
• Garlic Powder: adds flavor
• Smoked Paprika: adds flavor and color
• Ground Pepper: adds a bit of spice

How to make Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes

Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into ½-inch pieces.

Toss them with olive oil and seasoning.

Cook for 11-13 minutes

Shake the basket every 5 minutes.

How to store    

Store your sweet potato cubes in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days

When ready to reheat, you can microwave them, or air fry them at 350F until warm.
