Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece medium sweet potato
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 piece avocado
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- optional toppings (e.g., fried egg, smoked salmon, feta cheese, fresh herbs)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or set a toaster oven to the same temperature.
Wash and dry the sweet potato. Slice it lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices for the toast base.
Brush both sides of the sweet potato slices with olive oil and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Place the sweet potato slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or in the toaster oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the slices are tender and lightly browned.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, prepare your toppings. Mash the avocado in a small bowl and slice the cherry tomatoes in half.
Once the sweet potato slices are cooked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Spread a layer of mashed avocado on each sweet potato slice. Top with cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with red pepper flakes for added flavor.
Add any optional toppings, such as a fried egg, smoked salmon, crumbled feta, or fresh herbs, to customize your sweet potato toast.
Serve warm and enjoy your healthy and delicious Sweet Potato Toast!
