Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a half-sheet pan with foil. Prick the sweet potato several times with a fork. Place it on the pan and roast until a knife slides into the center with no resistance, about 45 to 50 minutes.
While the potato roasts, place the almonds in a small skillet over medium heat. Toast, stirring frequently, until they are golden and smell fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Done when golden and fragrant.
Let the roasted potato rest for 5 minutes. Split it down the center and mash the flesh slightly with a fork. Sprinkle with the cinnamon, half the salt, and the black pepper. Spoon the cottage cheese into the center, then sprinkle the remaining salt and the toasted almonds over the top. Finish by drizzling with the maple syrup.
