Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Clean and dry sweet potatoes. Bake 40-50 minutes, or until soft in the center. Check doneness by inserting a knife in the center of a sweet potato to see if it's soft.
Reduce the heat to 350 degrees. Allow sweet potatoes to cool until they can be handled without burning your hands.
Slice the sweet potatoes lengthwise and scoop out the sweet potato flesh. Be sure to leave about 1/4 inch of the sweet potato and skin in order to keep the shape.
In a large mixing bowl, add the sweet potato flesh, vegan butter, maple syrup, and seasonings. Mash until well combined. Stir in pineapple. Stuff the sweet potato with the mixture.
In a medium mixing bowl, add the pecans, cinnamon, flour, vegan butter, maple syrup, and salt. Top each sweet potato with the pecan mixture.
Bake the sweet potatoes for 20-30 minutes or until topping is crunchy. Serve warm and enjoy!
