Directions
It is by far the sweet potatoes that set this dish apart and leave your breakfast guests saying “Wait? You put what in this??”.
Everyone loves the combination of sweet and savory. It is sinfully satisfying to the pallet as well as the soul.
This was inspired my son’s request to NOT have the same ole breakfast, Mom! This is often difficult as I was on Whole 30 during this time. He also had a friend over so I knew I was going to have to be creative so my son wouldn’t get labeled the “nothing good” house.
If you are not on Whole30, I recommend drizzling this sucker with some pure maple syrup after plating. But honestly, it is tasty and sweet without it. Especially with this next tip / trick:
Optional Note from Ingredients List: Date Paste
I also add a touch of additional sweetness by making my own Whole 30 compliant date paste. I soak 10-15 dates in warm water for 15-20 minutes. Then, I add them to my small food processor until I get a paste consistency. Right before I pour the sauteed mixture into a casserole dish, I take a small amount and place it in drops around the mixture and then stir the mixture before placing it in the oven to bake.
