Notes

If you are baking your sweet potato, I recommend giving it a few pokes with you fork and wrapping the whole thing in tin foil. Then bake it at 450 F for about 45 minutes until it's VERY tender inside. You don't want to have to struggle to get that goodness out.
If you're microwaving it for a quick morning nosh, I usually give it some pricks, put it on a plate, and cover the plate and let it go for about 10-15 minutes on high. You'll know it's done when you can insert a fork in and it comes it super easily.
As for toppings, you can totally add whatever you have in your pantry. I like to top my sweet potato breakfast bowl with almond yogurt, almond butter, pears, dried cherries, dried cranberries, cacao nibs, pepitas and hemp hearts.
