Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a fork, pierce the sweet potatoes all over. Set on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the sweet potatoes for 45-60 minutes, until very easily pierced with a fork.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C).
- Transfer the cooked sweet potatoes to a wire rack. Let cool at room temperature for 30-60 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to cool completely, about 1 hour.
- While the sweet potatoes cool, make the crust: In a food processor, pulse the pecans until broken down into pea-sized pieces. Add the dates, coconut oil, and salt. Blend for 20-30 seconds, until crumb-like in texture.
- Transfer the crust to a 9-inch pie dish. Using your fingers, press the crust into an even layer. Transfer the pie dish to the refrigerator to cool completely.
- Once the sweet potatoes have cooled completely, remove the skins. You should have about 4 cups of sweet potato flesh.
- Transfer the sweet potatoes to a food processor, along with the evaporated coconut milk, maple syrup, eggs, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Blend for 60-90 seconds, until completely smooth.
- Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and use a spatula to smooth the top.
- Bake the pie for 40-45 minutes, until the filling is set and slightly darkened in color. If the crust or filling is browning too quickly, cover with foil for the final 15 minutes of baking. Remove the pie from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool for about 30 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator and cool completely, at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
- While the pie cools, make the coconut whipped cream: Scoop the coconut cream that has solidified at the top of the can into a medium metal bowl, leaving behind any coconut water left in the bottom. Reserve the coconut water for another use.
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla to the bowl with the coconut cream. Whip with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form.
- Slice the pie and top with the coconut whipped cream.
- Enjoy!
