Directions
Method for making the “Toast”
Use a large sharp knife to slice the sweet potatoes lengthwise, or alternatively make use of a mandolin. Aim to cut the sweet potatoes into 1/4-1/3 inch slices. Avoid slicing them too thin as they will loose their shape and if they are too thick they will not cook as fast in the toaster.
- Lightly spray the slices of sweet potato with cooking spray or gently rub olive oil, by slightly dabbing the excess oil off with a paper towel.
- Each toaster is different, therefore aim to toast these slices on a medium heat until tender but not too soft. Allow to cool on a airing rack not a plate as they will get soggy.
- The ratios for the below will allow you to spread 2 of each flavor.
T+J Sweet Potato toast
Start by spreading the strawberry jam, followed by a drizzle of tahini paste, sprinkle some crushed almonds and finally drizzle with honey.
Nectarine Vanilla Spice Toast
Combine the yoghurt, vanilla bean paste and cinnamon along with the honey. Mix well, spread the sweet potato toast, add some persimmon slices, crushed almonds and a little extra honey.
Pesto Egg Toast
Spread the toast with the pesto, place your fried egg on top. Sprinkle with salt and some olive oil.
Avocado Sun-Dried Tomato Toast
Optional, to layer the toast with sliced avocado, sun-dried tomatoes drizzle lemon juice and sprinkle some salt and pepper, optional you can combine all the ingredients into a food processor for a few seconds creating a smashed avocado topping.
Strawberry Cream Cheese Toast
Combine the cream cheese or cottage cheese with honey. Mix well and spread on top of the toast. Add some fresh slices of strawberry. Optional you can even sprinkle a few mint leaves on top.
