Ingredients
- 3 Apple Sweet Potatoes (approx. 300g each)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, select three Apple Sweet Potatoes, each weighing around 300g. This variety is often sold pre-washed, and the skin is edible, making the cooking process even more convenient.
Step 2
Although the sweet potatoes are sold washed, for extra peace of mind and hygiene, it’s recommended to rinse them once more under running water. Remove any dirt or debris and gently pat them dry.
Step 3
There’s no need to preheat the air fryer. Place the prepared sweet potatoes directly into the air fryer basket and cook. Start by baking them at 170℃ (338°F) for 20 minutes, then increase the temperature to 180℃ (356°F) and bake for an additional 20 minutes. The total cooking time is approximately 40 minutes at temperatures between 170-180℃. If you prefer a moister, softer texture, consider baking them for an extra 10 minutes.
Step 4
When baked, these Apple Sweet Potatoes offer a delightful texture, blending the chewiness of chestnut sweet potatoes with the softness of pumpkin sweet potatoes.
Step 5
Upon tasting, you’ll be surprised by their exceptional sweetness. They are significantly sweeter than honey sweet potatoes; in fact, even after eating a slice of pound cake, the sweetness of these sweet potatoes was not overpowered at all! However, the skin can be a bit tough when cooked. If you prefer a smoother eating experience, it’s advisable to peel the skin before eating. Still, eating them with the skin on is perfectly fine and delicious.
