Easy Bread Recipe: How to Make Sweet Potato Roll Toast Wrapped with Bacon
This is a delightful roll toast recipe featuring a sweet potato salad, wrapped with savory bacon and creamy cream cheese, then baked.

Create a wonderful brunch or snack with these simple ingredients!
Essential Ingredients- 2 medium boiled sweet potatoes
- 3 slices of bread
- 5 slices of bacon
- 50g cream cheese (or to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, peel the boiled sweet potatoes and mash them smoothly using a fork or a masher. It’s important to mash them until there are no lumps. Add finely chopped dried cranberries and nuts (like almonds) to the mashed sweet potato. Feel free to use raisins, walnuts, or pecans for added texture and flavor.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, chopped cranberries, and almonds. Add 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Adjust the sweetness by adding 1-2 teaspoons of honey, depending on the natural sweetness of the sweet potatoes. You can add a little more if you prefer it sweeter. Mix all ingredients thoroughly to create the sweet potato salad filling.
Step 3
Trim off the crusts from all sides of the bread slices. This step helps in rolling the bread smoothly.
Step 4
Using a rolling pin or the bottom of a clean bottle, flatten each slice of bread. The thinner the bread, the easier it will be to roll, and the crispier the final toast will be.
Step 5
Spread a thin layer of cream cheese evenly over each flattened slice of bread. The cream cheese acts as a binder and complements the flavors of the sweet potato salad and bacon.
Step 6
Place a generous amount of the prepared sweet potato salad onto the cream cheese-covered bread. Spread it evenly, leaving a small border around the edges, to make rolling easier.
Step 7
Starting from one end, tightly roll up the bread slice. Roll it firmly to prevent it from unraveling. Wrap 1-2 slices of bacon around the outside of the rolled bread to secure it. The bacon will help hold the roll together.
Step 8
Place the bacon-wrapped sweet potato rolls onto a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (375°F) for about 10 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the bread is golden brown. Baking times may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them. Alternatively, you can bake them in an air fryer at 180°C (350°F) for 7-9 minutes.
Step 9
Once removed from the oven, your sweet potato roll toasts will be golden and fragrant, with crispy bacon. Sprinkle with a little parsley flakes if desired for extra visual appeal. These delicious sweet potato roll toasts are best enjoyed warm!
