Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces Breakfast Sausage Patties (Feel free to substitute with ground breakfast sausage or plant-based options.)
- 4 cups Sweet Potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes (Regular potatoes or butternut squash can be used as alternatives.)
- to taste Salt
- to taste Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon (Optional if you prefer a more savory twist.)
- 1 tablespoon Pure Maple Syrup (A bit more can be added for a sweeter flavor.)
- Olive Oil (Optional, used for cooking sweet potatoes if they stick.)
- Diced Onions (Sauté with the sweet potatoes for extra flavor.)
- Diced Apples (Adds a delightful crunch and sweetness.)
- Fried or Poached Eggs (Mix in toward the end for a complete breakfast option.)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage patties until fully browned and no longer pink, about 3-5 minutes. Use a spatula to break them up as they cook. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the diced sweet potatoes. If necessary, add a light drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle with cinnamon for added warmth and flavor.
- Cook the sweet potatoes for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently until they are fork-tender and lightly golden.
- Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and drizzle the pure maple syrup over the mixture. Toss everything together to ensure it’s well combined and heated through.
- Spoon the Maple Sausage Sweet Potato Hash onto plates and enjoy while warm for a cozy meal.
- For extra protein, break a few eggs into the hash in the last few minutes of cooking.
