Method
 

  1. Wash the medium-sized sweet potato thoroughly. You can peel it if you prefer a smoother toast, but keeping the skin on adds fiber and nutrients.

  2. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the sweet potato lengthwise into approximately 1/4-inch thick "toast" slices. Aim for consistent thickness so they cook evenly. You will likely get 2-3 slices per potato, depending on its size and shape.

  3. Lightly sprinkle both sides of each sweet potato slice with ground cinnamon and a pinch of ground nutmeg, if using. This enhances the natural sweetness and adds a warm, inviting aroma.

  4. Oven Method: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the seasoned sweet potato slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the slices are tender when pierced with a fork and slightly caramelized around the edges.

  5. Toaster Oven Method: If you have a toaster oven, you can use a similar method as the above, adjusting the time as needed based on your appliance's power.

  6. Skillet Method (Less Ideal for Toast Like Texture): While not ideal for achieving a true "toast" texture, if you lack oven or toaster oven access, you could lightly pan-fry the slices in a dry skillet over medium heat, covered, until tender. This will yield a softer, steamed-like result.

  7. Once cooked and slightly cooled, arrange your Daniel Fast Sweet Potato Toast slices on a plate. Now it's time for the fun part – adding your Danel Fast-approved toppings!
    Spread a thin layer of unsweetened almond butter onto each slice.
    Scatter fresh berries over the almond butter for a burst of color and antioxidants.
    Sprinkle with unsalted chopped nuts for added crunch and healthy fats.
    For a touch of sweetness, a very light drizzle of 100% pure maple syrup can be used sparingly.
    Finish with a sprinkle of chia seeds for extra fiber and omega-3s.
