Ingredients

Scale

Sweet Potato Toast

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound total)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 pint raspberries or blueberries, or a combination
  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
  • Honey, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Using a sharp knife or mandoline, slice the sweet potatoes lengthwise into 1/4 inch thick slices to create the ‘toast’ base.
  2. Toast the Sweet Potato Slices: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the sweet potato slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush both sides lightly with the melted butter. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and edges start to crisp up.
  3. Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous layer of ricotta cheese evenly over each toasted sweet potato slice while still warm.
  4. Add the Berries: Top each slice with fresh raspberries, blueberries, or a mix of both to your preference.
  5. Finish with Almonds and Honey: Sprinkle sliced almonds over the berries, then drizzle honey on top to taste for a touch of natural sweetness.
  6. Serve Immediately: Serve your sweet potato toasts warm as a nutritious and flavorful treat.

Notes

  • Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes for best results.
  • You can toast the sweet potato slices in a toaster oven if they fit properly.
  • For a vegan version, substitute ricotta with almond or cashew-based cheese and use agave syrup instead of honey.
  • Adjust the berry quantity based on your preference or seasonal availability.
  • To add extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg on the sweet potato before toasting.
