The foundation for this hearty sweet potato breakfast bowl is a perfectly steamed sweet potato. The steamy, sweet interior is then mashed in a bowl, lightly seasoned with cinnamon and cardamom, and topped with a colorful mix of fresh fruit, pumpkin seeds, and a drizzle of maple syrup.

(5 from 7 votes)Can I just microwave my sweet potato?
Yes you can!
Could you make the potato in advance and heat it up in the morning? Thank you!
I didn't think this would be so great but it is absolutely wonderful, I loved it. I made it just like the recipe stated and I wouldn't change a thing.
This was delicious. I liked the mashed sweet potato better before I added the mape syrup, so next time I will skip that step. I also think that pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice would work well in this recipe.
Super yummy!
Very good! I used some frozen mango chunks, thawed and mashed, because mango and sweet potato is yummy together and I didn’t have strawberries.
✅ MAKE IT EASY ON YOURSELF and buy frozen vegetables. Dr Greger has said‼️~ chunks of washed & cut sweet potatoes and MICROWAVE‼️
This looks amazing and what a nice addition to the breakfast rotation!!

OMG....I never had sweet potato for breakfast. This breakfast was amazing.

Any kind of nut? Sliced almonds, pecans, walnuts. It’s yours to enjoy.
