Ingredients:
nonstick cooking spray
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar, divided
1 egg
2 egg whites
15 ounces sweet potatoes, drained and mashed
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon lemon juice
lemons (optional) or orange wedge (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F; spray a 10-inch fluted tube pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, beat together butter, granulated sugar, 1/3 cup brown sugar, egg, and egg whites until light and fluffy. Add sweet potatoes and mix well. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Gradually add flour mixture to sweet potato mixture alternating with yogurt, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Add vanilla.
3. In a small bowl, combine pecans with remaining 1/3 cup brown sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon.
4. Spread 1/3 of the batter into prepared pan. Sprinkle with half the pecan topping. Repeat layers, ending with final 1/3 of the batter. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick, inserted, comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Invert onto serving plate.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, orange juice, and lemon juice. Drizzle over warm cake. Garnish with lemon or orange wedges, if desired.
