Ingredients
- 2 Large Sweet Potatoes Garnet Yams or Japanese Sweet Potatoes
- Avocado Oil Spray
- Dash of Salt
Instructions
- Scrub the sweet potatoes to remove any dirt or grime.
- You can choose to peel if you don’t like the texture of the peel. However, if you leave the peel on, the “toast” keeps its shape better.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Then line a cooking sheet with parchment paper.
- Take a sharp knife and cut off the tips of the sweet potatoes and discard. Slice the rest of the sweet potatoes lengthwise into same-size slices—about 1/3 to 1/4 of an inch thick.
- Lay sweet potato “toasts” on the parchment paper, so they aren’t touching. And spray with avocado oil on both sides.
- Sprinkle each one with a dash of salt.
- Bake in the oven for 5 minutes per side until they’re fully cooked. You should be able to stick with a fork, but they shouldn’t fall apart.
- Add your choice of toppings to enjoy right away.
Notes
Chef Note: You can make extra for later. Just allow them to cool completely and store them in the fridge in an airtight container to be used within the next three to five days. They can be reheated in the oven, air fryer, or toaster oven.
Chef Note: Choose larger sweet potatoes that have a tube-like shape, so it’s easier to slice and top like toast.
Chef Note: Toppings can be sweet or savory. Some popular choices include:
- Smashed avocado and a fried egg with a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning or just the avocado or just the egg and your favorite seasonings.
- Cream cheese with lox, red onion, and tomato slices, or for something sweet, go with cream cheese with sliced fruit or some no-sugar-added jam and a sprinkle of seeds or nuts for some added crunch.
- Ricotta cheese with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
- Tuna or chicken salad and perhaps a slice of cheese for a melt.
- Your choice of nut butter, topped with sliced bananas or berries.
- Add some hummus and sliced tomatoes or other raw or roasted veggies.
