Sweet Potato Casserole

Ingredients:
4 large sweet potatoes or yams, cooked and peeled
3/4 cup canned coconut milk
1 Tablespoon coconut oil
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Juice of half of an orange
Salt and pepper to taste
4 drops Cinnamon essential oil

Pecan Topping:
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
1 Tablespoon melted coconut oil
1 Tablespoon maple syrup
2 drops Cinnamon essential oil

Directions:
Place cooked sweet potatoes, coconut milk, coconut oil, maple syrup, nutmeg, orange juice, salt and pepper, and essential oil into a large bowl. With a hand mixer, blend until everything is combined. If desired, you can add more maple syrup or essential oil. Spread into an oven-safe dish and set aside. Combine all topping ingredients until pecans are well coated. Sprinkle on top of sweet potatoes. Bake in oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes, or until pecans have slightly browned. Serve warm.

Tip:
For additional deliciousness, drizzle maple syrup on top.
