These sweet potato stacks are crisped in the air fryer and layered with creamy mozzarella and a crunchy topping. They look impressive but take very little effort. The result is a cozy, flavor-packed dish you’ll want to make again.
Thinly slice sweet potatoes and add to a large mixing bowl. In a separate small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Combine with the sweet potatoes and stir to coat.
Use foil muffin tins, or small pieces of foil to hold the potato stacks in place. Spray each tin lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
Arrange sweet potato slices in a stack with a pinch of mozzarella cheese between each slice until the tin is almost filled, or about 2 inches high.
Combine panko, parmesan, and basil in a bowl. Pour in melted butter and stir. Top each sweet potato stack with a spoonful of breadcrumb mixture.
Place into the air fryer and cook for 30 minutes.
Let cool slightly before serving. Top with sour cream if desired.
Notes
Slice evenly: Use a mandoline for uniform sweet potato slices. Don’t overfill the tins: Leave space for heat to circulate and crumbs to crisp. Check early: Air fryers can vary, so check doneness a few minutes before time is up.
