Time 2h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup warm water
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup milk
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 large egg, slightly beaten
2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 tablespoons salted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Combine warm water and yeast in a measuring cup; stir to dissolve. Set aside.
  • Heat milk, unsalted butter, sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until butter melts and milk begins to bubble.
  • Place mashed sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl and pour milk mixture over top. Add lemon juice and mix until smooth. Let cool to lukewarm, 10 to 15 minutes. Add egg and yeast mixture; blend well.
  • Stir in 2 cups of flour and beat with an electric hand mixer at medium speed, about 3 minutes. Add enough additional flour to make a stiff dough. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.
  • Place dough in a buttered bowl. Turn dough to butter top, then cover and let rise until double in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Punch down and knead once more, then shape into rolls. Place on a greased baking sheet, cover, and let rise until double in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 20 minutes. Brush tops with melted butter while hot.

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
4 tablespoons white sugar
½ cup canned sweet potato puree
½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
3 tablespoons margarine, softened
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast, warm water, and 1 tablespoon sugar in a mixing bowl. Let stand 5 minutes.
  • Add remaining sugar, sweet potato, butter or margarine, salt, and slightly beaten eggs. Stir to mix well. Stir in 3 cups of flour. Turn out on a lightly floured surface. Knead 2 to 3 minutes, adding just enough of remaining flour to prevent sticking. Do not knead too heavily; when smooth, shape into a ball. Place in an oiled bowl, and turn to coat the surface. Cover, and let raise about 1 hour or longer.
  • Punch down, and allow dough to rest for 2 minutes. Divide into 16 to 20 balls, and place on a greased cookie sheet or in a 9x13 inch pan. Allow to rise until doubled.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 12 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, select firm, medium-sized sweet potatoes that are free of blemishes.
  • Cook the potatoes properly: To ensure that the sweet potatoes are cooked evenly, pierce them with a fork before baking. Bake them at 400°F for about an hour, or until they are tender when pierced with a knife.
  • Mash the potatoes thoroughly: Once the potatoes are cooked, mash them until they are smooth and lump-free. This will help to create a light and fluffy dough.
  • Add the right amount of flour: Too much flour will make the dough dry and crumbly. Start with 1 cup of flour and add more as needed until the dough is just able to hold together.
  • Let the dough rise: After you have mixed the dough, let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will help to create a light and airy texture.
  • Bake the rolls at a high temperature: To get a golden brown crust, bake the rolls at 425°F for about 20 minutes, or until they are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato dinner rolls are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make these rolls at home. So next time you are looking for a new side dish, give sweet potato dinner rolls a try.
