Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 medium-sized sweet potatoes, firm
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Spices

  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin (optional)

Toppings (Optional)

  • Creamy avocado slices
  • Tangy feta cheese
  • Chili flakes or hot sauce for a spicy twist
  • Nut butter, honey, and sliced bananas for a sweet treat
  • Hummus with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley for a vegan option
  • Poached egg or smoked salmon for added protein
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary for herb infusion

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Wash and peel the sweet potatoes if you prefer. Slice them evenly into about 1/4-inch thick rounds or lengthwise slices. Consistent thickness ensures even cooking and crispiness.
  2. Season and Oil: Lightly brush both sides of each sweet potato slice with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, and any additional spices you like, such as paprika, cinnamon, or cumin. This step is key for flavor and helps with browning.
  3. Cooking Method: Place the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden and the slices start to crisp up.
  4. Add Toppings: Once out of the oven, add your favorite toppings immediately while the toast is warm. This allows creamy or sticky toppings to meld beautifully with the sweet potato base.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Plate your Toast Patate Douce and enjoy while warm for the best texture and flavor experience.

Notes

  • Use a mandoline for perfectly even sweet potato slices to ensure even cooking.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; leave space between slices to allow crisping on all sides.
  • For extra crisp edges, broil the slices for 1-2 minutes after baking.
  • Leaving the skin on adds fiber and a pleasant texture if you prefer.
  • Use freshly ground spices to bring out deeper, richer flavors.
