Serves: 12
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato, washed and cut into 1-inch slices
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 whole shallot, minced
- 2 whole garlic cloves, minced
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried basil or thyme
- ¾ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 12 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 cups spinach or kale
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (200°C).
- Line a 12-cupcake tin with liners (or lightly coat silicone muffin cups with coconut/avocado oil spray) and set aside.
- Place sweet potato slices in a food processor and pulse until it becomes a crumbly meal, similar to the texture of rice.
- Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat and add the coconut oil. When oil is simmering, add the shallots and garlic.
- Sauté for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant and translucent.
- Add the sweet potato, salt, pepper, and herbs. Sauté for 5 more minutes until the potato has softened a bit.
- Add the greens and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the pan with a lid and let cook for 2 more minutes, allowing the greens to soften.
- Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
- Combine remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add cooled sweet potato mixture and whisk to combine.
- Divide mixture evenly among the liners.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges have started to pull away and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, but the top is still moist.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before removing liners.
