4 days ago Get-PnPUserProfileProperty return type is SortedDictionary<string, object> , as you can see at https://github.com/pnp/powershell/blob/ebff896b7978fdc09fee8a71006c8659f1c136b7/src/Commands/UserProfiles/GetUserProfileProperty.cs#L38 and https://github.com/pnp/powershell/blob/ebff896b7978fdc09fee8a71006c8659f1c136b7/src/Commands/UserProfiles/GetUserProfileProperty.cs#L154
It uses the standard PowerShell method Cmdlet.WriteObject
Here's an example in PowerShell showing the type of the returned object:
Note that Runbooks are different than running scripts on the console as there is no actual console for those scripts to write to. When running scripts on a computer with UI, the output is formatted by PowerShell automatically for that UI context, while runbooks don't.
Here are 2 examples. The first is the default behaviour on PowerShell running on my pc:
The 2nd has | Write-Host which ends up showing the same as you posted:
A search suggested to use .GetEnumerator():
You could try Out-String too, not sure if that would still show the type instead of the content.

This command works as intended in our sandbox tenant, when porting to our corporate tenant it behaves as mentioned above.
