For extra flavor, marinate the pork tenderloins in the pineapple mixture for at least 30 minutes before air frying. Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook the sweet potatoes in batches to ensure even cooking and optimal caramelization. If you prefer a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the pineapple preserves mixture.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat air fryer to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C), if recommended by manufacturer. (2 minutes)
02
StepCombine olive oil, pineapple preserves, garlic granules, cayenne, salt, and white pepper in a large mixing bowl; stir to combine. (3 minutes)
03
StepPlace sweet potato pieces into the mixing bowl and toss with the pineapple preserves mixture. Remove sweet potatoes to a plate, reserving the remaining pineapple mixture. (5 minutes)
04
StepPat tenderloins dry with paper towels. Place in the mixing bowl with the remaining pineapple mixture and toss to coat. (5 minutes)
05
StepBrush interior basket of the air fryer with the remaining olive oil. Place tenderloins in the basket, and in a single layer, add as many sweet potato pieces as will fit around the tenderloins. Set aside extra sweet potato pieces. You will cook them as a second batch. (5 minutes)
06
StepAir fry for 10 minutes. Turn tenderloins over, browned side down. Stir sweet potatoes, but keep them in a single layer. Air fry until pork loin is slightly pink in the center, about 10 minutes longer. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). If the tenderloins need more cooking time, turn them again and continue cooking and testing the temperature in 5 minute increments. (20-30 minutes)
07
StepRemove sweet potatoes from the air fryer when they are tender and caramelized. (See Cook's Note). (5-10 minutes)
08
StepWhen the tenderloins test done, place them on a platter and tent with foil. Allow to rest while the remaining sweet potatoes cook, about 10 more minutes. (10 minutes)
