- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 10” cake pan with parchment and set aside.
- Combine coconut milk, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, and ghee in a blender. Add sweet potato mash and blend again until smooth. Transfer contents to a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, add coconut flour, tapioca flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and mix until well combined. Add dry ingredients with blended wet batter and whisk until smooth. Fold in 1/2 cup or more coconut flakes.
- Pour into cake pan. Sprinkle a handful chopped hazelnuts and remaining coconut flakes.
