Note
Baked Sweet Potato: To make the mashed sweet potato, you need about 2 medium sweet potatoes or 1 extra-large sweet potato. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. (I used my air fryer's bake function). Wash potatoes prick with a fork multiple times. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until a fork easily pricks into the potatoes. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes, then peel off the skin and mash. Make sure it measures 1 1/2 cups. Allow to cool complete before using in the recipe.
