candied-sweet-potatoes-7

Ingredients

  • 3 med-large sweet potatoes
  • 2-3 tbsp melted coconut oil for roasting the potatoes
  • generous pinch salt
  • 1 cup raw pecans chopped
  • 1 cup pitted dates chopped (soften first if they’re very hard, soak in water)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1-2 Tbsp pure maple syrup depending on level of sweetness you want
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

Instructions

  1. First, preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Peel your sweet potatoes and cut into 1/2-1 inch cubes for roasting.
  2. Toss the sweet potato cubes with the 2-3 Tbsp melted coconut oil and dash of salt, and spread on a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25 minutes until tender.
  3. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, combine the chopped pecans and dates in a medium bowl and stir in the 1/4 cup melted coconut oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla and coconut flakes
  4. When the sweet potatoes are done roasting, remove from oven and turn down the heat to 350 degrees.
  5. Transfer the sweet potatoes to a 9 inch baking dish and sprinkle the pecan-date mixture over them generously.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until toasty and lightly browned on top.
  7. Serve and enjoy anytime, not just the holidays!
