I am currently obsessed with Breakfast Sweet Potatoes.

It really should not come as a shock, as I love sweet potato recipes AND I love breakfast recipes.

But this simple idea of a loaded sweet potato breakfast style, is too good and too easy not to share.

Breakfast Sweet Potato

There is nothing fancy or complicated about this sweet potato breakfast.

It is simple a baked sweet potato topped with Greek yogurt, bananas, and nut butter.

Simple, yet this combination is delicious and a perfect contrast in temperatures and textures.

Not to mention sweet potatoes for breakfast are a really healthy way to start the day, as they are full of fiber, healthy carbs, and vitamin A. When paired with yogurt and nut butter, you add in the benefits of protein, calcium, and healthy fats.

These Breakfast Sweet Potatoes are truly a perfectly balanced breakfast.

Topping for Breakfast Sweet Potato

My favorite way to top a sweet potato at breakfast is with a huge dollop of yogurt, 1/2 sliced banana, a drizzle of peanut butter, and a sprinkle of homemade granola. But you can let your imagination guide you. If you like your sweet potato on the sweeter side, drizzle with honey or maple syrup. Use coconut yogurt if you are dairy-free. Add berries when they are in season. You get the idea!

• Plain Greek Yogurt
• Sliced Bananas
• Berries
• Nut Butter
• Chopped Nuts
• Granola
• Chia Seeds

Notes

I use my Instant Pot Baked Sweet Potatoes as the base for this recipe. However, if you want to bake your sweet potatoes in the oven, pierce sweet potatoes with a fork and place on baking sheet. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 30-40 minutes of until sweet potato is tender.
