Ingredients:

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes (approx. 275g each)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp grass-fed butter
  • 0.25 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions:

  1. Scrub the sweet potatoes under cold water to remove debris. Dry them completely with a paper towel to ensure the skin can become crisp rather than steamed.
  2. Using a fork, pierce each potato 5-6 times across the surface to allow steam to escape during the cooking process.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil and kosher salt. Rub the mixture thoroughly over the skin of each potato until no dry spots remain.
  4. Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring space between them for airflow. Do not crowd the basket.
  5. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 35 to 45 minutes. At the 20-minute mark, use tongs to flip the potatoes to ensure even heat distribution.
  6. Check for doneness by squeezing the sides (with a mitt) or inserting a knife; it should slide in with no resistance. Slice open and top with grass-fed butter and smoked paprika.
