Not only are sweet potatoes tasty, they are also good for you, as noted in the following quote from AgriLIFE EXTENSION, Texas A & M System.

As a main dish or prepared as a dessert, the sweet-potato is a nutritious and economical food. One baked sweet-potato (3 1/2 ounce serving) provides over 8,800 IU of vitamin A or about twice the recommended daily allowance, yet it contains only 141 calories making it valuable for the weight watcher. This nutritious vegetable provides 42 percent of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for vitamin C, 6 percent of the RDA for calcium, 10 percent of the RDA for iron, and 8 percent of the RDA for thiamine for healthy adults. It is low in sodium and is a good source of fiber and other important vitamins and minerals. A complex carbohydrate food source, it provides beta carotene which may be a factor in reducing the risk of certain cancers.[5853]

To make the topping: mix the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a medium size bowl. Work in the butter using two knives, a pastry blender, or rub it together with your fingertips, until the mixture resembles very coarse crumbs. Stir in the pecans. (Refrigerate the topping if you are making it ahead of time.)

Remove the potatoes from the oven. Uncover and sprinkle the topping on the potatoes.
