Ingredients
  

  • 2 Sweet Potato 10 to 12 ounces each, scrubbed and dried
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/16 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • 1 ounce Raw Pecan Pieces (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 3 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons White Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter cold, cut into pieces

Instructions
 

  • Adjust the cooking rack to the lowest position and preheat toaster oven to 400°F on the BAKE setting.
  • Slice sweet potatoes in half lengthwise, add to a baking sheet and drizzle with oil. Use your hands to rub the oil over the skins and flesh.
  • Bake sweet potatoes (with the cut side facing the pan) until fork-tender, about 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Once cooked, remove the pan from the toaster oven and allow the sweet potatoes to cool for 5 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 375°F and leave the toaster oven on.
  • Roughly chop the pecans. Combine the chopped pecans, oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and use your fingertips to work the butter into the oat mixture until it forms into small clumps.
  • Refrigerate streusel until the sweet potatoes are ready for topping.
  • Flip the cooled sweet potatoes over and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg. Use a fork to gently mash the flesh and combine the seasoning.
  • Distribute crumble topping evenly over the sweet potatoes.
  • Return pan to the toaster oven and bake until the streusel is lightly browned and crispy, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly before digging in!

Notes

  • Leftovers reheat great cooked at 325°F for about 10 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are warmed through and the crumble is crispy again.
