Sweet Potatoes
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, washed and halved
Toppings
- 1 cup mixed fresh fruit (such as berries, banana slices, or apple chunks)
- 1/4 cup mixed nuts (such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans), roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons mixed seeds (such as pumpkin seeds and chia seeds)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- Pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the sweet potatoes evenly.
- Prepare the sweet potatoes: Wash and halve the sweet potatoes lengthwise. Place them cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Roast the sweet potatoes: Place the sweet potatoes in the oven and roast for 35-45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Assemble the bowls: Once the sweet potatoes are roasted and slightly cooled, scoop the flesh into bowls or serve in the skins as desired.
- Add toppings: Top each bowl with mixed fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, and a generous dollop of yogurt. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup and sprinkle with cinnamon if using.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy the bowls warm for a comforting and nutritious breakfast.
Notes
- Choose fresh, seasonal fruits to enhance flavor and nutrition.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
- Adjust the quantity of nuts and seeds based on your preference for crunch and texture.
- Roasted sweet potatoes can be made ahead and refrigerated for quick morning assembly.
- Add a sprinkle of granola or coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
