Notes
Methods for Cooking Sweet Potatoes:
Oven: Place on a lined baking sheet and pierce the skin with a fork. Bake at 425F til tender, around 50 minutes.
Slow Cooker: Place in your slow cooker and close the lid. They will take around 6 hours on low and 3 hours on high.
Air Fryer: Place sweet potatoes in air fryer basket and cook on 400F for 35-40 minutes.
Microwave: If you are in a real hurry, you can cook a sweet potato in around 5 to 8 minutes on full power, Pierce with a fork and cook for 5 minutes, then in 30 second increments til tender. It’s great if you are in a hurry, though I much prefer the texture with the Instant Pot.
