Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes
- 6 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
- 0.5 cup coconut cream (thick portion from canned coconut milk, chilled overnight)
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup chopped green onions
- 4 teaspoons ghee
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly, then pat them dry.
Pierce each sweet potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the sweet potatoes in the oven for 50-60 minutes, or until they are soft and easily pierced with a fork.
While the sweet potatoes bake, prepare the coconut cream topping. In a small bowl, mix the chilled coconut cream with nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir well until fully combined.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
Once the sweet potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Slice each potato lengthwise down the center and gently push the ends inward to open up the potato.
Add 1 teaspoon of ghee to each sweet potato, spreading it evenly with a knife or spoon.
Top each sweet potato with a dollop of the seasoned coconut cream, followed by a generous sprinkle of crumbled bacon and chopped green onions.
Serve immediately while still warm and enjoy this Paleo-friendly take on a loaded baked potato.
