Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups purple sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 premade pie crust (you can use store-bought or homemade)

- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed purple sweet potatoes, coconut milk, and sugar. Mix it all up until it’s nice and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and about half a cup of the coconut mixture. This is to make sure there are no lumps. Once smooth, combine it with the rest of the mixture.
- Add in the vanilla extract and lemon juice, stirring well until everything is incorporated.
- Pour that luscious filling into your pie crust, spreading it evenly to ensure perfect slices.
- Now, pop that beauty into the oven and let it bake for about 45 to 50 minutes. You want it to set up nicely but keep an eye out so it don’t overcook!
- Once you take it out of the oven, let it cool completely. You can stick it in the fridge to chill if you like it cold.
- Serve it chilled or at room temperature, and watch your guests devour every last piece!
