This fried egg sweet potato toast is proof that healthy breakfasts don’t have to be complicated. Satisfying and delicious, it comes together in minutes.
If you haven’t already prepped the toast, scrub and slice your sweet potato into ¼-½ inch slices, lay them on a lined baking sheet and bake at 400 °F for 25-30 minutes, until tender and lightly browned. If already made, just pop a couple of slices in the toaster to reheat them.
2 slices sweet potato toast
Heat a bit of butter in a nonstick or well-seasoned skillet over medium heat. Once melted and hot, crack in your egg and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until done to your liking.
2 large eggs, 2 teaspoon butter, ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt, ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Place the sweet potato toasts on a plate, top with the fried eggs and finish with chopped green onions. You can also add additional toppings if you'd like such as hot sauce or microgreens.
1 tablespoon green onions
Enjoy!
Notes
Make ahead: You can prep the sweet potato toast ahead of time to make breakfast quicker during the week.After baking, allow the slices to cool completely on a wire rack (this helps prevent sogginess), then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. When you’re ready to eat, just pop in the toaster to reheat.Leftovers: I recommend frying the egg fresh for best results.But if you do have leftovers, you can store the cooked egg in the fridge for up to 1 day. To reheat, gently warm it in a skillet over low heat. You can use the microwave but the yolk is more likely to end up fully cooked.
