Instructions
-
Roast the Sweet Potatoes:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cubed sweet potatoes in olive oil, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Spread the sweet potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized. -
Prepare the Base:
Once roasted, transfer the sweet potatoes to a bowl and drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Use a fork to mash the sweet potatoes slightly for a smoother texture or leave them cubed for more texture. -
Assemble the Bowl:
Spoon the roasted sweet potatoes into individual serving bowls. Top with your choice of toppings such as Greek yogurt, granola, fresh fruits, nuts, chia seeds, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of nut butter. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve immediately as a warm, hearty breakfast. Enjoy the nourishing combination of sweet potatoes, fruits, and healthy fats to fuel your morning!
Notes

You can prep the sweet potatoes in advance by roasting them the night before and reheating them in the morning for a quick and easy breakfast.
-
Feel free to adjust the toppings to suit your taste preferences or dietary needs. Try adding a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cacao nibs for extra flavor.
-
For a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and opt for a plant-based sweetener like agave.
