Joy. That’s something I think we could all use a little more of right now. Simple pleasures. Happiness. Enjoying life.

I don’t know about you, but I see so much negativity happening in the world right now. Too much stress, drama, noise. And I have my own battles I’m facing with my health. It’s not easy, but I am choosing JOY. Choosing to meditate on good things in life. Like pies that are prettyKindness. Love. And PIE.

This purple pie exudes happiness to me. It makes me smile just looking at it. I hope it does the same for you. Because we all need more joy.

VEGAN PURPLE SWEET POTATO PIE WITH COCONUT ALMOND CRUST

 PREP TIME: 30 MINS  

COOK TIME: 45 MINS  

TOTAL TIME: 1 HOUR 15 MINUTES  

YIELD: 8-10 SERVINGS 1X

Vegan Purple Sweet Potato Pie is as delicious as it is pretty. It's made with purple yams which give it a totally natural bright purple color. It's a showstopper!

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CRUST:

• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 cup almond meal
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

FOR THE PIE FILLING:

• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon allspice
• 2 lb. purple yams, peeled and cut into 1-inch rounds (about 4 cups worth)
• 3/4 cup canned coconut milk (not low fat)
• 1/2 cup maple syrup (see notes)
• 1 1/2 tablespoons tapioca starch
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1/4 – 1/2 cayenne pepper (neither amounts are very spicy but the 1/2 teaspoon does stand out more)
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

FOR THE COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM:

• 1 can of full fat, additive free coconut milk (make sure it does not contain guar gum)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom and sides of a 9″ pie pan with coconut oil.
2. Mix all the crust ingredients in a large bowl then transfer them to the prepared pie pan. Wet your hands lightly to prevent the crust from sticking to them then press the crust into the pan, making sure it is even on the sides and bottom.
3. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. When you remove it from the oven, the crust will have puffed up and be light golden brown. Use the back of a spoon to gently push the crust down so there is room for the filling.

FOR THE FILLING:

1. Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Add the purple yams and boil for 10 minutes, or until the yams can be pierced with a fork. Drain the yams then put them in a high-powered blender or food processor.
2. Add the rest of the pie filling ingredients and blend on high until everything is smooth and creamy.
3. Pour the pie filling into the baked pie shell and smooth out the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the pie has set but still has some jiggle in the middle. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely before serving it.

FOR THE COCONUT WHIPPED CREAM:

1. Set the can of coconut milk in the fridge for at least 1 hour, but preferably overnight. You want the cream and the milk to separate, and this is easier if it is very cold.
2. Separate the hard cream from the watery milk. Put the cream in a large bowl and add the powdered sugar. Using electric beaters, beat the cream for 2-3 minutes. It won't form stiff peaks like regular whipped cream, but it will be stiff enough to dollop.
