Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
  2. Lightly brush the sweet potatoes under cold running water. Place them on a baking sheet and roast until tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly, then cut them in half lengthwise, separating the top third.

  3. Scoop out the pulp with a large spoon (leaving enough pulp so the skin holds its shape) and set aside.

    Place the potato pulp, 2 tablespoons of sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and butter in a food processor. Process until the ingredients are completely combined and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Spray the baking sheet with a little vegetable oil.

    Place the potato peel base on a baking sheet and fill with the mixture.
  4. Combine the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and pecans in a small bowl. Sprinkle the sugar-nut topping over the stuffed sweet potatoes.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes. If desired, broil the potatoes for 1 minute, until the tops are golden brown.
