Ingredients:

2 sweet potatos
230g
1 cup granola
120g
2 tbsp almond butter
33g
2 tsp maple syrup
13g
1/4 tsp cinnamon
0.65g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes:
- Rinse and scrub the sweet potatoes to remove any dirt. Pierce each sweet potato a few times with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking.
3. Bake the Sweet Potatoes:
- Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
4. Cool and Slice:
- Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Once cool enough to handle, slice each sweet potato in half lengthwise.
5. Add Almond Butter:
- Spread 1 tablespoon of almond butter on each half of the sweet potatoes.
6. Drizzle with Maple Syrup:
- Drizzle 1 teaspoon of maple syrup over each half of the sweet potatoes.
7. Sprinkle with Cinnamon:
- Evenly sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon over each half of the sweet potatoes.
8. Top with Granola:
- Divide the 1 cup of granola evenly between the four halves, sprinkling it over the top of each.
9. Serve:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious breakfast sweet potato!

Tips:

- Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and free from blemishes for the best results.

- Microwave the sweet potatoes for a quicker cooking method if you're short on time.

- Feel free to add other toppings like fresh berries, nuts, or seeds for added nutrition and flavor.

- Ensure the sweet potatoes are tender by inserting a fork into the thickest part before removing them from the oven.

- Adjust the amount of maple syrup to suit your taste preference—use more if you like it sweeter or less if you prefer a mild sweetness.

- For a creamier texture, you can mix the almond butter with a bit of milk before drizzling it over the potatoes.

This Breakfast Sweet Potato recipe is a perfect blend of sweetness, crunch, and wholesome goodness. It's a great way to begin your day with a nutritious and energizing meal. Customize it with your favorite toppings or enjoy it as is!
