These Twice Baked Breakfast Sweet Potatoes recipe is perfect for a whole30 breakfast that everyone in the family will love!

Okay guys. I gotta be honest.  These twice baked breakfast sweet potatoes might have changed my life a little!  If you know me you know I LOVE sweet potatoes.  I also happen to LOVE breakfast foods – bacon and eggs specifically. But I usually have my sweet potatoes for breakfast in a hash, leftover roasted, or as toast! After stuffing sweet potatoes a few other ways, I knew it was only a matter of time before this dish made it on the breakfast table, and now I don’t know how I lived before! Now this recipe takes a bit of time to make so it isn’t something I would easily whip up when I wake up.  BUT luckily it reheats super well so making a big batch on the weekend to last you all week is a phenomenal idea!  The best part is you can add any protein you want or even leave it out all together.  I added bacon but I bet some chopped up chicken apple sausage would be fabulous too.

I love how just a few simple ingredients we use all the time can combine to be something so new, fresh and delicious!  I also recommend this if you are hosting a breakfast or brunch of any kind.  Perfect to make ahead of time in big batch and guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser.  Easter brunch anyone? Pin the recipe to save it for then!

Twice Baked Breakfast Sweet Potatoes


  • Author: Kelsey

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large or 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 2 tablespoons full fat coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon chives
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Line a baking sheet with foil and place sweet potatoes on the pan. Pierce each sweet potato 4-5 times with a fork.  Place in the oven and roast for 60 minutes for large sweet potatoes and 50 minutes for medium sweet potatoes (or until they are easily fork tender).
  • Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and let rest for 5-10 minutes to cool down a bit.
  • While the sweet potatoes rest, cook bacon over medium high heat until crispy then set aside.  Pour out some of the bacon grease and leave about 1 tablespoon in the pan.
  • Add onions to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often until slightly browned and soft. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Break eggs into a bowl and whisk with a fork and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour eggs into the pan and cook them, stirring often until scrambled and cooked through. Set aside.
  • Take a spoon and scoop out most of the sweet potatoes leaving a little bit around the sides to maintain the shape. Place the insides in a bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork.
  • Add ghee, coconut milk and garlic powder and mash together again.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add chopped bacon, cooked onions, scrambled eggs and chives.  Stir again to combine evenly and season to taste with salt and pepper as needed.
  • Scoop the mixture back into the sweet potato skins evenly then place on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.  Bake for 10 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
