    METHOD

    To make the stuffed sweet potatoes: Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F. Wrap each sweet potato in aluminium foil and place it on a baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

    Combine the pears, figs, cranberries, and walnuts in a large mixing bowl. Allow the potatoes to cool for 10 minutes before unwrapping them and cutting them in half lengthwise. Divide the fruit filling among the potato halves, mounding it on top. Place them on the baking sheet and return them to the oven for 15 minutes.

    To make the maple-tahini sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients. Drizzle over the tops of the baked sweet potatoes and serve.
