Sweet Potato Pecan Pie with Cinnamon Ice Cream Recipe

One large, baked sweet potato--a cousin of the yam, but richer in vitamins A and C--should yield a little more than 1 cup puree. Bake until soft (about 45 minutes), remove skin, and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Prep: 20 minutes, Cook: 50 minutes.
