Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 4 eggs
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup spinach leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Slice them into 1/4 inch rounds to serve as the buns of the sandwich.
Place the sweet potato slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with coconut oil. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until they are tender and slightly crisp.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Remove and let drain on paper towels.
In the same skillet, fry the eggs to your preferred doneness (sunny-side up, over-easy, etc.). Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and mash until smooth.
To assemble the sandwiches, take one sweet potato round as the base. Spread a layer of mashed avocado, top with spinach leaves, lay a slice of bacon, add a fried egg, and cover with another sweet potato round.
Repeat the process for the second serving. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your paleo breakfast sandwich!
