Instructions
- 1
Pierce the sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place them on a foil-lined baking sheet. Roast at 400°F (205°C) for 45–55 minutes, until a knife slides through the thickest part with no resistance. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then peel and mash the flesh until completely smooth — you need about 1 1/2 cups of mash.

While the sweet potatoes roast, make the crust. Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt in a large bowl. Add the cold dairy free butter cubes and work them in with a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with a few pea-sized pieces remaining.
