Roasted sweet potatoes, apples & mushrooms is a simple flavorful sheet pan meal perfect as a side, breakfast or main dish.

I get many requests for savory gluten-free breakfast options that don’t include eggs, and so I created this roasted sweet potato, apple & mushroom sheet pan meal as a solution.

It’s packed with color, texture, and flavor, it can be made ahead and then gently reheated for a quick morning hash-style breakfast.

It also makes an amazing side to roasted fish or meat or as a base for a vegetarian or vegan bowl.

These simply roasted vegetables would also make flavorful side dish for any holiday meal.

Or, top it with a fried egg or some cooked sausage for extra protein and you have an easy dinner any night of the week.

You really can’t go wrong with this one.

I hope you’ll make it soon!

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons melted coconut or avocado oil, or oil of your choice, divided
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 1 small or ½ large yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 medium apples, any kind, cored and chopped

Notes

*Omit for Whole30.
Skip the pecans or swap them for toasted pumpkin seeds for a nut-free option.
Top the hash with a fried egg, or cooked chicken sausage to make it even more substantial.
I buy naturally (fruit juice) sweetened cranberries in the bulk section of my local natural foods market. If that’s not an option for you, you can order a completely unsweetened, 1-lb bag here (worth it if you also want to have them on hand for other recipes and snacking). Or, you can go for apple juice sweetened cranberry (I love these or these for this recipe and for snacking). Of course, feel free to use regular sweetened cranberries if that’s all you can find, the final results will still taste great and will only add a minimal amount of refined sugar.
