This Simple Sweet Potato Breakfast Bowl with Fruits is a hearty, energizing way to start your day. The soft, cinnamon-sweetened sweet potatoes pair beautifully with fresh fruits like banana, berries, and a sprinkle of crunchy nuts, making it a balanced meal full of flavor and nutrients. The drizzle of almond butter adds a creamy texture and a hint of richness, while the chia or flaxseeds boost the nutritional value even further.
- Ingredients:
- 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (or olive oil)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1/2 banana, sliced
- 1/4 cup blueberries
- 1/4 cup strawberries, sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional)
- A drizzle of almond butter or peanut butter (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
- In a medium skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the cubed sweet potato and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the sweet potato is tender and lightly golden. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
- Once the sweet potato is cooked through, sprinkle the cinnamon over it and drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Stir to coat the sweet potato in the cinnamon and syrup.
- Remove from heat and transfer the sweet potato to a bowl.
- Top with the sliced banana, blueberries, strawberries, and nuts.
- Sprinkle with chia seeds or flaxseeds for an added nutritional boost, and drizzle almond or peanut butter over the top for extra flavor and creaminess.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and serve immediately.
