Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

In a large pot cover the sweet potatoes with water and cook over medium heat until they can be easily pierced with a knife.

Drain and add the coconut milk and salt. Mash the potatoes until completely smooth.

Transfer to a large oven-safe bowl or 8 x 10 baking dish. Cover with pecans and brown sugar.  Bake for 10 mins.

Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 to 15 before serving.
