Baked Sweet Potatoes

I recieved some sweet potatoes in my bountiful basket and didn't want to make my usual Thanksgiving ones so I found this recipe online and thought I would try it. It turned out to be yummy and easy. Couldn't remember the real name so just thought I'd use Baked Sweet Potatoes.

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1/4 cup milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
TOPPING:
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/4 cup quick oatmeal

Directions
In a large bow, combine the first eight ingredients. Spoon into a greased 3-cup baking dish. Combine the topping ingredients; sprinkle over potato mixture. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until a thermometer inserted near the center reads 160 degrees F.
