The Sweet Potato Toast Has Taken Over Instagram!

Remember the avocado toast fad? Liked it? Well, there’s another new fad that has been sweeping across the internet and you won’t believe what it is.

Meet the sweet potato toast. Yes, that’s exactly what you read. Ditch that regular plate of buttered toast with preserves and feast on this delicious new breakfast fix instead. It’s the easiest thing to whip up on a lazy Sunday morning. But if you’re in a rush and can’t fit in a sumptuous breakfast into your packed schedule, sweet potato toast can be your easy fix.

 

 

It all began this May when blogger Kelsey Presciado of Little Bits Of Real Food discovered what magic you can create with sweet potatoes. All she did was thinly slice a sweet potato, pop it into the toaster, and dress it up with the toppings of her choice.

 

 

The result? A lip-smacking breakfast, as you can see above. Following Kelsey’s post, several people took to Instagram with their own versions of sweet potato toast. From chocolate drizzles and berries to eggs and ham, take a look at how people dressed up their sweet potato toast and get inspired to make your own.

If you want to indulge your sweet tooth, slather your slices with Nutella spread, add some sliced strawberries or bananas and dust a sprinkling of cinnamon over it all.

That, folks, is how you eat a power breakfast!
