These simple Air Fryer Sweet Potato Cubes are an easy side dish ready in 15 minutes! They're so tender with just the right seasonings to add flavor without overpowering the natural sweetness of the potato. I hope you enjoy them! 😊
Equipment
- 1 sharp kitchen knife
Ingredients
- 2 small sweet potatoes (or 1 large) (1 pound = 16 oz)
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (30 ml)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- dash black pepper
Instructions
- Wash your sweet potatoes. Peeling is optional. On a cutting board, use a sharp knife to cut them into 2-inch cubes.
- In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes with the olive oil and spices until well coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 400℉ (200°C) for a couple of minutes. Add your sweet potato cubes to the air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Air fry for 10-12 minutes, giving them a good shake about 5 minutes through. Cook time may vary slightly depending on your air fryer.
- Hint: you may need to cook the sweet potatoes in batches. Spreading them in a single layer allows the air fryer to circulate hot air.
Notes
Expert Tips

- Keep an eye on them in the last couple minutes of cooking because they can quickly go from cooked to burned!
- Refrigerator - store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
