3 Grain-free Sweet Potato Toast Recipes

3 Grain-free Sweet Potato Toast Recipes

Nothing will replace a piece of freshly-baked, crispy yet soft sourdough bread, but crispy yet soft sweet potato toasts topped with thinly sliced top sirloin, herb mayo, salted tomatoes, and fresh greens will definitely curb the carb cravings.

The sweet potato toast trend is not new. All your classic toast toppings have been recipe tested on a browned sweet potato plank; peanut butter, and jelly, butter, avocado to name a few. Why not top with tender, sliced top sirloin for a serving of protein for breakfast, meal-prepped lunch, or an easy dinner?

Sweet potato toasts can be made in multiple ways. As we were experimenting, the toaster oven proved to be the best and easiest way to get that "crispy on the outside and soft on the inside" feel. You can also use a regular pop toaster or roast the sweet potato planks on a sheet tray in the oven.

Everyone's toaster oven, classic toaster, or oven is different. Between Sarah Beth's, recipe developer, kitchen appliances and Pre's test kitchen toasters, we even had to change plans when it came to photoshoot day. Sarah Beth's pop toaster worked the best when she tested it at home and Pre's toaster oven worked the best when it came time to photograph. 

Here is how to make your sweet potato toasts in both a toaster oven and a classic toaster with 3 topping recipes that will satisfy those salty, sweet or starchy cravings. 

Slicing a sweet potato on a cutting board into planks

Instructions for All Sweet Potato Toasts: 

  1. Scrub and peel the sweet potato. Using a large, sharp knife, slice the potato lengthwise into ¼-⅓ inch oval slices. Very lightly spray slices with cooking spray.
  2. For a regular toaster: place potato slices into bread slots and toast on the highest setting until slightly browned on the outside and soft on the inside. Most regular toasters will take 2-3 rounds.
  3. For a toaster oven: place potato slices directly onto the rack and toast on high approximately 10-15 minutes.

"Real talk...since my cancer was environmental and not hereditary I am super conscious of what goes into my body, especially protein. Post chemo left my body super low in iron so steak remains in my diet. I found Pre a few months ago and it’s the only meat I buy. Grass-fed, no added hormones and most importantly affordable. Eat better for your body people!"

jaqueline

"Your steaks, especially the sirloin, ribeye, and filet mignon are absolutely delicious. Wasn’t sure how these cuts would taste grilled but they taste just as good if not better than cuts I’ve had a top notch steakhouses."

Mario

"When our son was diagnosed with a rare medical disorder, it meant that we would have to change our diet as a family. Because his metabolism doesn’t function like a typical person’s, we have to be very careful about what we feed him. One of the changes we made was to use more grass-fed and finished beef in our cooking. We decided to give Pre a try, and we are so happy with the quality and taste of the meat. Buying from Pre gives us peace of mind and we feel confident knowing that we are using a product in the top of its class."

Lindsay

"This beef is AMAZING! I'm from Wisconsin so a huge steak lover. This is some of the best beef, I've experienced and I've had beef around the world. It's a must try, and you'll understand what I mean."

Tracy

"My husband and I loved having these filets once a week. I sear both sides and "in-between" in a very hot small Lodge cast iron skillet. I use a spatter guard. Then I place the skillet in a 400 degree oven for between 2min. 10-20 seconds. Perfect medium minus filets. My mouth is watering as I write this!!"

Mary M.

"These steaks and other Pre products have been a staple in our home for over a year now and we continue to be fully satisfied with their consistently good quality and flavor. They are the perfect size, are delicious and easy to cook. Add Pre’s amazing customer service to it and you end up with an exceptional overall product!"

K.G.

"Best steak I've had in a long time. I love being able to order grass fed beef that is way better than I can find in grocery stores. Really tastes great on the grill . I'm addicted to it now."

Jeff S.

"First time trying the 10 Pack New York Strips. Oh My! had an unexpectedly warm day and whipped out the grill. Enough said. Delish !!!! Steaks are equally cut making cooking much easier for the desired temp."
