This savory sweet potato breakfast bowl makes a nourishing breakfast (or brunch, lunch, or dinner!) It brims with goodness from creamy sweet potato puree, toasted sesame oil, sautéed spinach and scallions, crunchy vegan coconut bacon, and poached eggs. See notes for make-ahead, vegan, and egg prep options!

Whipped Sweet Potato Breakfast Bowls with Spinach, Eggs, and Coconut Bacon

coconut bacon

potatoes

vegetable bouillon cube (or use 2 cups vegetable broth in place of some of the water)

butter

Salt,

rice vinegar

3-4 large eggs (or 2 eggs per bowl if you like)

La Tourangelle toasted sesame oil, plus more for drizzling

scallions,

lightly packed washed baby spinach

Togarashi,

Peel the sweet potatoes, cut into large cubes, and place in large saucepan. Add the bouillon cube and cover with 1 inch of water (and vegetable broth if using instead of bouillon). Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are very tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve ½ cup of the cooking liquid and drain the sweet potatoes.

Return the cooked sweet potatoes to the pot, add the butter, and blend with an immersion blender until creamy, adding as much of the cooking liquid as you need to make a thick puree. Taste, adding salt or butter if you like. Cover and keep warm.

Fill a skillet with high sides with water, add a bit of salt, and bring to a bare simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Add a splash of vinegar to the simmering water and carefully add each egg to the water, holding the bowl close to the surface of the water. Cook the eggs for 4 minutes for a medium poach. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels and trim away any wonky whites. Drain the skillet and wipe dry.

Heat the toasted sesame oil in the now empty skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and spinach and cook, tossing, until wilted. Season with a few pinches of salt to taste.

Spoon the whipped sweet potatoes into bowls, divide the spinach among them, top with the poached eggs, coconut bacon, a sprinkle of togarashi, and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil.

Gluten-Free Chai French Toast Casserole is easily made ahead and baked just before you are ready to enjoy it. The honey-butter sauce drizzled on top adds the perfect touch of sweetness.
