Instructions

  1. First, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wrap each sweet potato in aluminum foil and pierce several times with a fork. Place each wrapped sweet potato on baking sheet.
  3. Bake for an hour, or until potatoes are soft and tender.
  4. Meanwhile, add ground beef, onion, green pepper, ghee and carrots to a cast iron skillet. Cook on medium heat until beef is brown and crumbly, breaking up with a spatula.
  5. Then, discard excess grease from skillet. Add remaining pie filling ingredients to the skillet.
  6. Bring to a light boil and continue stirring. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Then remove from heat and set aside.
  7. Once sweet potatoes are done, carefully remove from oven. Remove skins and add potato flesh to a large mixing bowl. Stir in ghee and coconut cream until smooth and creamy.
  8. Top meat mixture with sweet potato mixture. Place skillet in oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes or until edges are bubbly.
  9. Finally, remove from oven and serve.

Notes

  • Cook ground beef until browned and crumbly.  Use a spatula to break apart beef.
  • Roast sweet potatoes until soft and tender.  Add more baking time if needed!
  • To make sweet potato layer extra smooth and creamy, add sweet potatoes, ghee and coconut cream to a blender.  Top meat mixture with blended sweet potatoes.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • To reheat, either microwave or heat in oven at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes.
