Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F. and spray a muffin pan with cooking oil.
  2. In a large bowl toss the shredded sweet potatoes with the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Use your fingers to press approximately 1/3 cup of the shredded sweet potatoes into the bottom and sides of each muffin cup creating a nest.
  3. Bake until the potatoes are golden brown, about 18-25 minutes, keep on eye on them so the tips of the potato shreds don’t burn. Remove the potatoes from the oven and crack an egg into each nest, topping with salt and pepper.
  4. Place them back in the oven to bake for another 10-15 minutes depending on how well done you like your eggs cooked. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a couple minutes before serving topped with hot sauce, cilantro and avocado.
