Peel and slice sweet potatoes to approximately 1/8-inch thick or use a mandoline. Thinly slice the onions and set aside.
Grease baking dish with a bit of coconut oil. (Note: I use a 9x9 baking dish for 6 servings.)
Create overlapping layers of the sweet potato slices in the dish and sprinkle the onions between each layer. Continue until all sweet potato and onion are used up.
In a saucepan, heat coconut oil on medium heat. When melted, add almond flour and whisk for 1-2 min.
Add coconut milk, pumpkin, garlic powder, thyme & salt. Whisk until combined and warm, about 5 minutes.
Pour the sauce over the sweet potatoes. Top with any leftover sprigs of thyme or a dash of dried thyme.
Bake 40-45 minutes, uncovered, until sweet potatoes are cooked through. Enjoy!
