Bake sweet potatoes at 450 degrees F for 40 minutes or until soft.

Split potatoes in half lengthwise and scrape out the pulp. Take care not to break shells, place them on a baking sheet.

In a bowl, mash the sweet potatoes with the butter. Add the pineapple, salt, cinnamon and pecan pieces. Spoon back into the shells and top with mini marshmallows.

Bake at 325 degrees F for 20 minutes.
