Ingredients

  • 1 medium sweet potato
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 slices thick cut bacon
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Grease a muffin pan with a tablespoon of coconut oil.
  • Grate the sweet potato so you have a little over 1 cup.
  • Mix in 1 tbsp of coconut oil, salt, and pepper with the sweet potato so they are evenly mixed.
  • Evenly divide the grated sweet potato into 6 muffin holes and press them down the bottom and sides so they form small cups.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut bacon slices into small bits and fry them until they just start to crisp.
  • When the sweet potato cups are done, crack an egg into each one carefully without breaking the yolk.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper and evenly sprinkle bacon bits on top of the eggs.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until the egg whites are set.
  • Let it cool for 10 minutes before taking them out of the tin.
