Sliced sweet potato stands in for bread, toasting up tender in the center with lightly caramelized edges. Topped with almond butter and a few simple finishing touches, it makes a quick gluten-free breakfast or snack that balances earthy sweetness with a bit of crunch.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium sweet potato, scrubbed and sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices
  • 4 tablespoons almond butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon sliced almonds

Method

  1. Slice the sweet potato lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick planks, discarding the rounded end pieces that won't fit in the toaster slot.

  2. Place the slices in a toaster set to a medium-high setting and toast once, about 4 minutes.

  3. Toast the slices a second time on the same setting until a knife slides easily into the center and the edges are lightly browned, about 4 minutes more. Toast a third time if the slices still feel firm.

  4. Spread about 1 tablespoon of almond butter over each warm sweet potato slice.

  5. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sea salt, then drizzle with honey.

  6. Top with sliced almonds and serve immediately.
