Air Fryer Sweet Potato Bites [oil-free, vegan]

In our household we eat a lot of sweet potatoes. And when you eat a lot of sweet potatoes, you will inevitably have many pounds of leftover sweet potatoes. This is the case for use especially when we bake a large batch of say 3 to 5 pounds of sweet potatoes in the oven for eating throughout the week.

When the week is coming to the end we will sometimes have a pound or two of cooked sweet potatoes that need to be used up in the refrigerator. And this recipe is one of our favorite ways to use up these sweet potatoes before they go bad.

Of course, you could use freshly cooked sweet potatoes for this recipe, and for that you will want to initially bake the sweet potatoes for 45 to 50 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
