4.7 from 7 reviews

My kids LOVE this recipe for sweet potato bake with apple breakfast casserole. It takes a few minutes of prep, a few minutes to bake and it’s a nice alternative to eggs! Whole30 compliant and you can use whatever apples you have (I used granny smith).

Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  2. If you haven’t already shred the sweet potato until you have about 1 1/2 cups, packed.
  3. Shred the apple until you have about 3/4 cup, packed. As you pack the shredded apple, you’ll naturally squeeze the juice out. You can save the juice for a recipe later, or drain in the sink. Be sure to press the apples into the measuring spoon very well, in order to get as much of the juice out as possible.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk the salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, eggs and milk together well.
  5. Heat coconut oil in a cast-iron skillet. Add the sweet potato and cook, stirring often, until the majority of the sweet potato is golden in color.
  6. Pour the sweet potato into the egg/milk mixture and add the apples and half of the raisins. Stir well so the ingredients are thoroughly mixed together.
  7. Pour this back into the skillet, smooth the top and sprinkle the remaining raisins and pecans on top.
  8. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the eggs are set and begin to brown.

Notes

If you want to double this recipe, cook the sweet potato as directed but in a bigger pan. Instead of transferring the egg/milk/sweet potato/apple mixture back into the pan, transfer to a 9×13 glass baking dish. Bake as directed.
