Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes
- 6 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon date paste
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the sweet potato, then slice it lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices to resemble toast.
Step 3
Brush both sides of the sweet potato slices with olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Bake the sweet potato slices in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they're tender but still hold their shape.
Step 5
While the sweet potatoes are baking, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine balsamic vinegar and date paste. Stir until the paste dissolves, then simmer for 3-5 minutes until the mixture reduces and thickens slightly.
Step 6
Slice the cherry or grape tomatoes in half, and roughly tear or chop the basil leaves.
Step 7
Once the sweet potato 'toast' is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Step 8
Top each slice with halved tomatoes, fresh basil, a drizzle of the balsamic glaze, and a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy this Whole30-friendly twist on a classic toast!
