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.
