Ingredients

  • Ingredients:
  • Crust
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
  • Filling
  • 1 pound sweet potatoes washed
  • 1/ 4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/ 4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/ 4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/ 4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup coconut milk
  • 2 eggs

Instructions



  • 1. Preheat the
    oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the sweet
    potatoes on the baking sheet and bake for about 60 minutes or until they are
    fork-tender. Once they are cooked, let them cool completely.


  • 2. To make
    the crust dough, combine all the ingredients in a bowl using an electric mixer.
    Then refrigerate the dough for 30 mins.


  • 3. After 30
    minutes, place the cooled dough on a piece of parchment paper and form into a
    ball. Then place a second piece of parchment paper on top of the dough and roll
    to a round 12-inch circle.


  • 4. Peel off
    the top sheet of parchment paper and place the dough into a 9” diameter glass
    pie dish with the second sheet of parchment paper facing up. Then remove the
    parchment paper.  Gently press the dough
    into the pie dish and huddle together in cracks. Use a sharp knife to even out
    the top crust line.


  • 5. For the
    filling, cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the inside of
    the potato and put it in a large mixing bowl, then mash the potatoes.


  • 6. Once
    mashed, add the remaining ingredients and use an electric mixer to combine.
    Spread the filling into the prepared pie crust.


  • 7. Bake the
    pie in the preheated oven at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until the center
    of the pie is firm. Let the pie cool completely.


  • 8. Slice the
    pie into even pieces and serve with whipped cream.




Notes:



  • ?      If you’re using canned pureed sweet potato
    (which is fine), place it on paper towels to gently drain out some of the
    excess water. You won’t need to do this if you baked the potatoes yourself.


  • ?      Store the leftovers covered in the
    refrigerator for up to 4 days.
