Step 1
Scrub, dry, and prick sweet potatoes with a fork. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour at 425 degrees or until fork tender turning the sheet halfway through the baking process. Let cool long enough to handle easily.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 3
Scoop sweet potatoes out of the skin with a spoon and place them in a large bowl. Add sugar, beaten eggs, salt, butter, evaporated milk, vanilla, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Mix well with a potato masher or on low with an electric mixer. Spread the mixture in the greased baking dish.
Step 4
In a medium bowl combine brown sugar and flour. Using a pastry knife cut in the butter until the mixture is crumbled. Stir in pecans; sprinkle mixture over sweet potatoes. Bake for 30 minutes; turn the broiler on low for the last 1 1/2-2 minutes of baking just to lightly brown the top.
