Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 3 tbsp hemp seeds
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 2 tbsp almond butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Toppings

  • 2 cups blueberries
  • 4 tbsp pumpkin seeds
  • 4 tbsp plain Greek yogurt


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) to prepare for baking the sweet potatoes.
  2. Bake Sweet Potatoes: Wash the sweet potatoes and prick them with a fork. Place them on a baking tray and bake for 50-60 minutes until tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  3. Cool and Peel: Allow the baked sweet potatoes to cool until safe to handle. Then, remove the skins carefully.
  4. Mix Ingredients: Place the peeled sweet potatoes into a bowl and add hemp seeds, almond milk, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture until fluffy and smooth.
  5. Assemble Bowls: Divide the mashed sweet potato mixture evenly into 4 bowls. Top each bowl with fresh blueberries, pumpkin seeds, and a dollop of plain Greek yogurt to finish.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any plant-based milk or dairy milk as preferred.
  • Maple syrup can be adjusted for sweetness, or replaced with honey for a different flavor profile.
  • For a vegan alternative, use a plant-based yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.
  • Make sure the sweet potatoes are fully cooked to achieve the best texture when mashing.
  • This breakfast bowl is high in fiber and protein, making it a great option for a filling morning meal.
