A delectable and healthy dessert made with coconut flour and sweet potatoes, naturally sweetened and dairy-free.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes (well-cooked and cooled)
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Shredded coconut for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a cake pan by greasing it lightly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
  3. In another bowl, mix the mashed sweet potatoes, coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake tender.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
  6. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before frosting.
  8. For frosting, mix additional mashed sweet potatoes with coconut cream and spread on top of the cooled cake. Finish by sprinkling shredded coconut over the frosting.

Notes

Ensure sweet potatoes are fully cooked and smooth before measuring. Coconut flour is highly absorbent; measure it accurately.
