Directions
- Heat oven to 450°F. Prick potatoes with a fork and place on foil-lined baking sheet. Bake until tender, 45 minutes. Let cool enough to handle. Reduce oven to 350°F.
- Meanwhile, combine ⅔ cup sugar, the flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon nutmeg, the ginger, and salt in a food processor; pulse to combine. Add pecans and coconut oil; pulse just until coarsely chopped and mixture holds together loosely. Transfer topping to a bowl and set aside.
- Peel potatoes and add to food processor along with remaining sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and the vanilla. Pulse until smooth. Season to taste and spread into an oiled 3-quart baking dish. Top with pecan crumble and bake until golden brown and fragrant, 30 minutes.
