# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The natural sweetness creates the perfect canvas for both sweet and savory toppings
  • You can prep a batch ahead and just add toppings when hunger strikes
02 -
  • Uneven slices will cook unevenly so take your time cutting consistently thick planks
  • Let them cool for just a minute or two so they firm up slightly before topping
03 -
  • For the crispest texture finish the slices in your toaster for one minute after roasting
  • A mandoline makes perfectly even slices if you want restaurant looking results
