  3. In a large bowl, combine grated sweet potatoes, coconut milk, coconut palm sugar, freshly grated ginger, and sea salt.
  4. Sprinkle in the gluten-free flour and stir until a mostly smooth batter forms, then pour into the greased pan.
  5. Bake in preheated oven for about 45 minutes, until firm and edges pull away from sides.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the custard topping ingredients: coconut milk, coconut palm sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
