Recipe

Wash thoroughly under running water to clean unblemished, well-dried mature pumpkin sweet potatoes.
Place the completely dry sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, without overlapping.
Set the air fryer temperature to 170 degrees and bake for 15 minutes to remove internal moisture and enhance sweetness.
After 15 minutes, open the appliance and flip each sweet potato individually so heat distributes evenly.
Increase the temperature to 200 degrees and continue baking for another 15 minutes to achieve a golden-brown crust.
After a total of 30 minutes of cooking, the sweet potatoes will be fully cooked through, with slightly puffed skin and a moist, tender interior.

Place cleaned pumpkin sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket.
Bake at 170 degrees for 15 minutes, then flip the sweet potatoes.
Increase temperature to 200 degrees and bake for another 15 minutes to finish.

Cooking tips

Use sweet potatoes that have been aged for about 20 days in a well-ventilated area rather than freshly harvested ones with high moisture content; this enhances sweetness as the stem dries out.
Avoid starting with too high a temperature during the first stage, as it can trap moisture inside before the interior cooks, causing only the outside to burn—making the initial low-temperature phase essential.
