FAQ
Can I make this without an Air Fryer?
Yes, the oven works just as well: bake the sweet potatoes at 200°C (400°F) for about 40-45 minutes until soft. The oven takes a bit longer than the Air Fryer.
What can I use instead of quark if it's not available where I live?
Plain Greek yogurt or strained cottage cheese makes a good substitute for the quark in the dip. Stir in a little lemon juice to mimic quark's slightly tangy flavor.
Can I prep this ahead of time?
The chickpea-spinach filling and the dip can both be made 1-2 days in advance and kept refrigerated. The sweet potatoes taste best fresh from the Air Fryer, reheated briefly right before serving.
