Sweet Potato Toasts
Sure, there are some good gluten free toasts out there, but let’s be honest, some are pretty disappointing. As a sweet potato addict (seriously, I think I have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner), I am always looking to find ways to include them in all of my meals. So, when I was at my parent’s house sans any good GF bread to toast for breakfast, in went the sweet potato slabs. Holy moly was I pleasantly surprised.

Sweet potato (1)
Avocado (1)
Banana (1)
Blueberries (½ cup)
Almond butter (2 spoonfuls)
Shredded coconut (¼ cup)
Cinnamon
Red pepper flakes
Sprayable avocado oil
Special Equipment: toaster & a wire rackDirections:
Slice the sweet potato into ½ inch thick slabs
Place the sweet potato slabs on the wire rack on top of a cooking sheet
Spray the sweet potatoes with avocado oil and place in the oven at 425 for ~20 minutes or until cooked through
Allow the sweet potato slabs to cool and place them in an air tight container in either the fridge if enjoying soon after or in the freezer if eating over 3 days later
When ready to eat, place the slab in the toaster for ~3 minutes
If you are unable to cook the sweet potato prior, place the raw sweet potato in the toast for ~7-8 minutes. It is not as delicious, but it definitely gets the trick done
Remove from the toaster and use as a base for your favorite toppings as you would toast
My favorite combinations: mashed avocado and red pepper flakes, almond butter with banana and cinnamon, and almond butter with blueberries and coconut flakes
