    Why Bako Sweet Potatoes?

    There are many sweet potatoes, but Bako Sweet is a family favorite for these air-fried sweet potato wedges. It is important to choose foods that improve our food chain, and it can be hard to find companies that care about quality instead of just quantity, but Bako does just that!

    Why Bako is a good pick;

    • USDA Organic, grown without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, preservatives, and GMOs.
    • Bako Sweet uses sustainable growing practices.
    • Loaded with vitamins and minerals (vitamin A, antioxidants, fiber, and more)
    • Each bag has equally sized sweet potatoes, making cooking times consistent.
    • Grown in California, the perfect climate for the ultimate sweet potato flavor.

    If you have Sprouts Farmer's Market nearby, you can grab them there. You can find Sprouts at a local retailer near you using the store locator if you don't have Sprouts.

    Money talks. Spend it on companies who give back and do good for the planet.

    Best Potatoes For Air Fryer Sweet Potato Wedges

    Avoid using small potatoes, like baby sweet potatoes or any petite varieties. These are perfect for many other recipes but won't be as sturdy as an Orange Sweet Potato. Sweet potatoes are large and make a perfect wedge.

    How Long To Cook Sweet Potato Wedges in Air Fryer

    Most air fryers have a "french fry setting." My air fryer is set to 400F for 20 minutes. For two potatoes that cooked them perfectly without burning. The high temperature crisps the outside and leaves the center soft and fluffy.

    For good measure, check them halfway through cooking and give them a good shake to ensure even cooking.

    What You'll Need

    It's a simple recipe that will be a crowd favorite. You only need three ingredients to make this recipe; they are pantry staples you might already have.

    • Bako Sweet Potatoes
    • Avocado Oil: any neutral oil works for this if you don't have avocado oil.
    • Steak Seasoning: Hear me out. It's not only meant for meat. Steak seasoning gives potatoes the same umami goodness. Check the label for non-vegan ingredients like beef flavoring.

    Now, let's get cooking!
