I just found this awesome idea the other day - sweet potato toast. Just take some large slices of sweet potatoes, air fry (or toast) them, and then top with whatever you like! What a great gluten-free and grain-free alternative to standard toast without typical storebought bread.

- 3 slices (120 g) Sweet potato

1. Preheat your air fryer to 400F.

2. Take a large sweet potato, and cut 3 large, thin slices from the center, about 40 g each or 120 g total.

3. Optionally lightly spray the top with oil, and optionally sprinkle with flaky salt.

4. Air fry at 400F for about 10 minutes, flipping halfway, or until soft, tender, and lightly browned.

5. Top with whatever you got!
