What you'll need
- Potatoes. I love using Yukon Golds here.
- Bell Peppers. Use any color or a mix of colors.
- Onion. Red, yellow, or white.
- Paprika.
- Garlic Powder.
- Salt & Pepper. To taste.
For the optional Tahini Dressing:
- Tahini. Tahini is made by grinding sesame seeds into a smooth paste. It's sold in most large supermarkets and online.
- Lemon Juice. Freshly squeezed, please.
- Maple Syrup. For a touch of sweetness.
- Garlic.
- Cold Water. Helps to thin the dressing.
- Sriracha. For a touch of heat (optional).
- Salt & Pepper. To taste.
How to make it
1. Place the potatoes, bell pepper, and onions, onto a large, parchment-lined baking sheet. Season them with the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.
2. With the help of your hands, mix everything together nicely and spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer. Bake for 30 minutes at 400°F.
3. While the veggies are baking, you can make the tahini sauce. This sauce is optional, but highly recommended. To make it, simply whisk all of the ingredients until well combined. Use more water to thin the sauce, if needed.
4. After 30 minutes, take the baking sheet out of the oven, gently toss, and return to the oven for 10 more minutes. Once fully cooked, plate the potato hash and drizzle it with the tahini sauce. Enjoy!
Tips for the best Baked Potato Breakfast Hash
- Chop the vegetables to similar sizes. Keep the potatoes, peppers, and onions to a uniform size so they bake at the same rate and are equally tender.
- Keep the tahini sauce on the thin side. Your sauce should be easy to drizzle, so if it is on the thicker side, add a little cold water at a time until it thins out to the right consistency.
- Use fresh lemon juice in the tahini sauce. Fresh lemon juice has more flavor and is usually a little less tart than the concentrate in the bottle. Fresh also has more Vitamin C.
- Spread the vegetables out evenly before baking. Even baking is important for this dish, so spread the seasoned veggies across the pan in one layer so they don't clump together or undercook.
Add-ins and Substitutes
- Add other vegetables. If you like other veggies in your breakfast hash, such as spinach, zucchini, or mushrooms, add them in. Just remember to chop them to a similar size as the others.
- Substitute sweet potatoes. For even more health benefits, you can substitute sweet potatoes for the regular potatoes in this recipe. These will also add more sweetness as they caramelize.
- Add fresh herbs. Chop some fresh dill, parsley, thyme, rosemary, or sage into this dish for added flavor.
- Substitute other sauces. If you don't have any tahini, you can enjoy this Baked Potato Breakfast Hash with other sauces, such as ketchup, hot sauce, Vegan Cashew Cheese Sauce, or Vegan Mushroom Sauce.
