Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds)
3/4 c coconut milk
3/4 c light brown sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp sea salt
FOR THE CRUST
1 1/4 c gingersnap cookies, ground (about 25 cookies)
1/3 c unsweetened coconut, shredded
4 Tbsp butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prick sweet potatoes with a fork and place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 1 hour or until verty tender. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Meanwhile, to make the crust, stir together ground gingersnaps, coconut and butter in a medium bowl until moistened and well combined. Press mixture into and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake about 15 minutes or until golden. Let cool slightly.
  • 3. To finish the filling, peel roasted potatoes and transfer flesh to the bowl of a food processor. Discard skins. Process until potatoes are pureed. Add coconut milk, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and process until evenly combined.
  • 4. Pour sweet potato filling into crust and bake about 50 minutes or until just set in the center of the pie. Let cool to room temperature on a wire rack. Serve or chill in refrigerator until ready to serve.

I added a scoop of vanilla ice cream to my slice of pie, and it was heavenly! The cold ice cream perfectly complemented the warm pie filling. I highly recommend serving this pie with ice cream.

I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and the pie still turned out great! The filling was so delicious that it didn't even matter that the crust wasn't homemade. I will definitely be making this pie again using a store-bought crust.

I substituted almond flour for the all-purpose flour in the crust, and it turned out great! The pie was still flaky and flavorful, and it was a healthier option. I will definitely be making this pie again using almond flour.
