Sweet Potato Breakfast Bake

Sweet Potato Breakfast Bake

Cooked sweet potato - about 2 cups
The canned ones would work. You can also easily roast your own by popping them in the oven whole until they are soft and then scooping out the inside.

3 eggs

1/2 cup butter/bacon drippings blend Or coconut oil if you prefer

1/2 cup ricotta cheese (Silken tofu for a dairy free version)

3 tablespoons brown sugar or honey or maple syrup

1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon chili powder blend (not pure chili powder)
A couple tablespoons of spiced dried kale flakes - if you keep this kind of thing around. If not, throw in some parsley and call it good.

1. Use an electric mixer to beat the eggs, the add all of the other ingredients and mix thoroughly.

2. Spread in a 9 x 13 glass baking dish

3. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

4. Top with crumbled bacon and serve warm.

This is an easy and hearty breakfast. You could mix it up the night before and stick it in the fridge to pull out and bake in the morning. In this case, I would add the bacon crumbles in the morning just before baking.
