Walnuts & Coconut Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 4-5 yams or sweet potatoes

• ½ cup of velvety full-fat coconut milk

• 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice (because it's not the holidays without a little spice!)

• 1 ½ cups of walnuts

• ¾ cup of unsweetened coconut flakes

• 3-4 tablespoons of coconut oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to a cozy 375 degrees Fahrenheit and roast those sweet potatoes for about an hour, or until they're soft enough to melt your heart.

2. Once the sweet potatoes have cooled and are ready to join the flavor party, peel them and toss them into a bowl.

3. Add that rich coconut milk and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice to the sweet potato mix. Whip it up until it's as smooth and creamy as your favorite holiday playlist.

4. Now, let's get artsy! Pour this creamy concoction into a 9-inch round pie dish or an 8x8 baking dish.

5. Sprinkle the chopped walnuts and sprinkle that unsweetened coconut magic on top.

6. Add little dollops of coconut oil for an extra dose of yum.

7. Pop this masterpiece into your oven, preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and let it bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the walnuts are lightly toasted and ready to party.

8. Serve it up fresh and piping hot, or tuck it away in the fridge to enjoy within the next 3-4 days.
