Ingredients
4 medium to large sweet potatoes
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
¼ cup coconut sugar
1/3 cup rolled oats
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup butter or Earth Balance, melted
½ cup unsweetened almond milk
¼ cup pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon Himalayan pink salt (or regular salt)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Pierce the sweet potatoes several times with a fork. Place the potatoes on a lined baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the sweet potatoes are soft.
For the crumble topping, stir together the pecans, coconut sugar, oats, all-purpose flour, and melted butter.
When the potatoes are done, let them cool. Then, cut them open and discard the skin. Put the soft sweet potatoes in a food processor and blend.
Add in the almond milk, maple syrup, ground flax, vanilla extract, and spices. Blend again to combine.
Spread this mixture into a 9x12-inch casserole dish and top with pecan crumble mixture.
Bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes until the top is golden brown.
