Ingredients

2 medium Sweet Potatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 pinch Sea Salt
1 tbsp Ghee
1 tbsp Brown Sugar
0.5 tsp Cinnamon Powder
15 g Walnuts

Instructions

1
Scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly and pat them completely dry.
2
Using a fork, poke holes all over the potatoes (about 6-8 times each) to allow steam to escape.
3
Rub the skin lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
4
Place in the air fryer basket (do not overcrowd) and cook at 200°C (400°F) for 35-40 minutes. Flip them halfway through cooking.
5
They are done when a knife slides into the center with zero resistance.
6
Slice open lengthwise. Fluff the inside with a fork, then add ghee, brown sugar, cinnamon powder, and crushed walnuts while steaming hot.

Chef's Tips

•Savory Option: Use your Labne or Goat Cheese as a base, drizzle with Tahini and Pomegranate Molasses, and top with Zaatar.
•Spicy Option: Top with Thai Chili Sauce, chopped Cashews, and cilantro (Frozen Coriander).
•If your potatoes are very large, they may need an extra 5-10 minutes.
