Sweet Potato Rolls Recipe

sweet potato rolls
These rolls have an interesting flavor, and great moistness from the sweet potato. They are higher in fiber than regular rolls also and are great with a little cinnamon butter, or just plain butter.

1 1/2 cup mashed sweet potatoes
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 cup warm milk (or 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup water)
1 package yeast
1 egg
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 stick butter melted (or 1/4 cup oil)
3 - 3 1/2 cups flour

Mix the first 8 ingredients together then add the flour. Knead to form a soft, smooth dough(about 5 minutes). Let the dough rise in a greased bowl until fully doubled, about 1 1/2 hrs. Punch it down and shape into 1 1/2 or 2 in balls, depending on how big you want your final rolls. Place them on greased baking pans with at least 1 in of space between each roll. Let them rise until doubled again, about 1 hr more. Bake on 350 degrees for 25 min. Serve warm.
