Notes
- If you do not have a mandoline slicer, you can use a knife. Cut off one tip of the potato so you can stand it upright to make slicing it more manageable.
- If there is a large selection of sweet potato varieties, pick the red or oranged skinned sweet potatoes as they tend to be creamier.
- Depending on how powerful your toaster is, you may have to toast the slices of sweet potatoes more or less than 3 to 4 toasting cycles. Once the sweet potatoes are fork-tender, they’re ready to go.
- Avoid slicing the potatoes too thin or too thick. If they’re too thin, they might burn in the toast, and if they’re too thick, the interior won’t be cooked through while the exterior burns.
- You might have to rotate or flip the sweet potato slices between toasting cycles depending on your toaster. Use a pair of tongs to move them.
