Sweet potato toast
- Age: 10–12 months (Self-feeding)
- Texture: Finger food
- Prep: 3 min
- Cook: 15 min
- Makes: 1–2 portions
Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato
- 1 tbsp mashed avocado or nut butter, thinned
Contains: None of the common allergens
Method
- Cut the sweet potato lengthways into 1 cm slices.
- Toast in a toaster on the highest setting, two or three rounds, until soft right through — or bake at 200 °C for 20 minutes.
- Cool, spread thinly, and cut into fingers.
Safety: Soft right through — check with a fork. Always sit your baby upright and stay with them while they eat.
Storage: Slices keep 2 days in the fridge.
Tip: A toast with no bread. Slightly odd to make, popular to eat.
