For the crust
6 Medjool dates, pitted and soaked for 1-2 hours
2 tablespoons nut butter
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 cup pecans
1 teaspoon sea salt
For the filling:
1 cup sweet potato, boiled and mashed
8 Medjool dates, pitted and soaked for 1-2 hours
2/3 cup cashews, soaked for 3-4 hours
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 pinch sea salt, for garnish

1
Begin making the crust by pulsing the almonds, pecans, and sea salt in a food processor. Drain the dates and add to the food processor with the nut/seed butter of choice and pulse until nuts and dates are finely chopped - you don't want any big chunks.
2
Press the crust into a pie pan, filling the area of bottom first and then lining the sides as much as possible in an even layer. Refrigerate.
3
Prepare the filling by draining the dates and cashews and tossing them into the food processor with the sweet potato and coconut milk. Pulse until smooth - now you really don't want any chunks. Add the vanilla and spices and pulse again to combine.
4
Pour the filling on top of the crust and use a spatula or knife to smooth. Sprinkle with sea salt and crushed pecan pieces.
5
Freeze for 6-8 hours before slicing. Serve immediately and store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.
6
Enjoy!
