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.

I followed the recipe exactly and my rolls turned out dense and dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They're definitely a good option for a family with a sweet tooth.

I'm not usually a fan of sweet potato dishes, but these rolls were surprisingly good! The sweetness was perfectly balanced by the savory spices. I'll definitely be making them again.

I made these rolls for Thanksgiving dinner and everyone loved them! They were so easy to make and they turned out perfectly. The sweet potato flavor was subtle but it really added something special to the rolls.

These sweet potato dinner rolls were a hit at my last dinner party! They were soft, fluffy, and had a slightly sweet flavor that paired perfectly with the savory dishes I served. I'll definitely be making them again.
