Ingredients:

1 lb cooked sweet potato (canned will work-just rinse and drain thoroughly)

Zest of 1 orange

4 eggs lightly beaten

1 cup vegetable oil

2/3 cup water

1 Tbsp. Vain Vanilla

2 1/2 cup sugar

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tsp. baking soda

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 Tbsp. pie spice

1/4 tsp. ground ginger

3/4 cup pecan pieces

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease and flour two (2) 9x5x3 loaf pans.

Toast pecan pieces in oven until fragrant (approx 10 min).  Sift all dry ingredients together.  Mix wet ingredients until well combined.  Add dry ingredients and mix on medium speed until well combined-do not over mix.  Stir in pecan pieces.  Divide batter evenly between 2 loaf pans.  Bake on middle rack until skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean, approximately 50 min.
