2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled (optional) and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 tbsp olive oil
0.5 tsp cinnamon Shop
0.25 tsp nutmeg Shop
Pinch salt
2 cups plain dairy-free yogurt
2 tbsp pumpkin seeds Shop
2 tbsp hemp seeds Shop
1 tbsp maple syrup Shop

Instructions

1 Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a medium bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until evenly coated. Ensure each piece is lightly glistening with oil and spices.
2 Spread the seasoned sweet potato cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and allows for even roasting, creating tender interiors and slightly caramelized edges.
3 Roast the sweet potatoes for 20-25 minutes, or until they are fork-tender and have developed a beautiful golden-brown hue. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork, and they will smell wonderfully fragrant.
4 While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare your serving bowls. Divide the dairy-free yogurt among four bowls. This will serve as the creamy base for your breakfast.
5 Once the sweet potatoes are perfectly roasted, carefully spoon them into the bowls over the yogurt. Sprinkle generously with pumpkin seeds and hemp seeds for added crunch and nutritional value. Drizzle with maple syrup, if desired, for an extra touch of sweetness.
