What does it taste like?
This sweet potato breakfast hash hits all the right flavor notes. You'll taste natural sweetness and fruity tartness rounded out by sweet warming spices. And it's savory with subtle smokiness.
Texture-wise it's tender with delightful pops of crunch from roasted walnuts which also lend some nutty flavor. The beauty here is that everything is bite-sized so you can get all the different flavors and textures together on a spoon!

What You'll Need for this Recipe
Making sheet pan breakfast the whole family will love starts with a simple ingredient list. Here are the highlights.
Sweet Potatoes are loaded with nutrients and add fiber to your breakfast plate. I typically include Jewel Sweet potatoes in this recipe but use any variety of sweet potato you like.
Apples add more fiber and sweet or tart flavor to the mix, depending on which kind you pick. I love Honeycrisp apples here but most any apple variety would work.
Sausage adds protein and savory breakfast vibes. I use precooked sausage patties but you could also use links. Go for the brand you typically have with breakfast.
Walnuts break up the tender texture trend with some crunch. I have made this recipe with a few other kinds of nuts but walnut is the best option, in my opinion.
Raisins get a bad wrap but I love them in this sheet pan hash. They hold it down on sweetness so there's no need to add sugar or any other sweetener to the mix. Either flame or golden raisins will work.

Tips & Tools
Grab a sharp knife and cutting board to prep the apples, sausage, and sweet potato. You'll also need a mixing bowl and kitchen spoon. And, of course, a sheet pan to roast everything together.
How to store leftover breakfast hash? Store your baked breakfast hash in an airtight container and refrigerate. It will keep for up to seven days.
Can you meal prep hash for breakfast?
Yes. Follow the recipe card instructions to make breakfast hash for the whole week. Then divide your daily portions into individual containers for each morning.
When I used to work in an office, my coworkers would always for this make-ahead healthy hash recipe because it filled the kitchen with amazing aroma when I reheat it in the mornings!
Is breakfast hash PCOS friendly?
Balancing fiber, protein, healthy fat, and complex carbs is key to managing my blood sugar and hormone balance. This healthy hash ticks all those boxes. It's is a great PCOS-friendly breakfast idea for cold days, though I recommend doubling the sausage to add more protein or adding a side of eggs.
And if you are gluten-free, doing Whole30 or even paleo, this hash is also compliant!

How to Serve
What goes well with breakfast hash? A side of eggs is a great way to add more protein to this dish. If you want to add more fiber, a side salad also works.

I made this breakfast hash for a celebratory brunch I had for a girlfriend yesterday and we had no leftovers. The sweetness from the apples balances out the mild sweet potatoes and the sage sausage patties I used. I'll definitely be making this recipe often, especially as fall approaches.

Jennie O is a great brand of turkey sausage. This would be great not only for breakfast, but for other meals as well. I especially like the use of the apple and raisins. I've never seen that before.
