Ingredients

  • 2 Large Sweet Potatoes cubed, peel if you like
  • 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 3 Pieces Uncured Bacon I used Turkey
  • 1/4 Cup White Onion Diced
  • 2 Tbsp Green Onion Chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the cubed sweet potatoes in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil until well coated.
  • Transfer the sweet potatoes to the baking sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes OR you can toss them in the air fryer at 400F for 10 minutes.
  • In a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon and onion in 1 tablespoon olive oil until bacon is thoroughly cooked and onion is tender.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are done, add them to skillet with the onion and bacon.
  • Continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes and season with salt and pepper.
  • Turn the oven broiler to high. Create three wells in the sweet potatoes and crack an egg in each.
  • Place the skillet into the broil heated oven and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Top with green onion and more seasoning if desired.

Notes

  • Use baby red potatoes if you prefer instead of sweet potatoes
  • You can partially cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave first.
  • Use any neutral tasting oil
