Bake your sweet potato. I bake mine on a cookie sheet for about 1 hour at 425 degrees.
Poking some holes in the potato will help in bake...and also make your little one feel like she's helping. :)

After potato is baked, peel off the skin (it should slip off pretty easily), and mash it up in a large bowl.
(now you can turn oven down to 350 degrees.)

whisk your eggs, and melt the coconut oil.

add all the wet ingredients (coconut oil, eggs, honey, and vanilla) to the mashed up potato.
mix well.

And get ready for your kitchen to smell like heaven.
