Air Fryer Parmesan Sweet Potatoes
These Air Fryer Parmesan Sweet Potatoes make a perfect side dish for your meal. They are super quick to make and have a great balance of sweet and savory.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds (680 g) sweet potatoes peeled and cubed (about 2 large potatoes)
- 1 tablespoon (14 g) butter melted
- 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded Parmesan cheese about 40g, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon (3 g) salt
- 1/4 teaspoon (0.5 g) ground black pepper
- 1 clove garlic minced (if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F(204°C).
- Place the cubed potatoes in a bowl. Pour over the melted butter, most of the Parmesan cheese (reserving a little to sprinkle on before serving), salt, pepper, and garlic (if using). Stir to coat.
- Add the seasoned sweet potatoes to the air fryer basket.
- Cook for 20 minutes. Shake the basket once halfway through to ensure even cooking. Serve with remaining shredded Parmesan sprinkled on top.
Notes
- You're going to want to use finely grated Parmesan. You can grate your own with a micro planer to get it very finely shredded, or buy it that way. Larger grated cheese doesn't work as well. It doesn't coat the potato pieces well, so it falls off or turns a bit greasy.
- The sweet potato cubes don't have to be in one layer. They'll cook even when stacked up. Just make sure to give them a shake half way through cooking.
- Try this recipe with regular potatoes as well.
All air fryers have different wattage and may cook at different rates. You may need to adjust the time or temp for the best results.
