Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup water 105-115˚F (40-46˚C, lukewarm, 120 milliliters
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour 500 grams
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar 38 grams
  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar 38 grams
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk 105-115˚F (40-46˚C, lukewarm
  • 3/4 cup sweet potato 170 grams, pureed
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened at room temperature, plus melted butter for brushing, 60 grams
  • 1 egg large

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, sprinkle the yeast over water. Stir briefly to combine and allow to sit at room temperature until frothy, about 10 minutes.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook or a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, pureed sweet potato, softened butter, and egg.
  4. Pour the frothy yeast water into the flour, followed by the sweet potato mixture. Mix to create a dough. It should be very soft and slightly sticky.
  5. On a floured surface, knead the dough until smooth. Only add flour as needed to handle the dough. Don't add too much or the rolls will become tough. Place the dough an oiled bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled, about 1-2 hours.
  6. Grease a 9x13 inch (23x33 centimeter) baking dish with butter.
  7. Punch down the dough and divide into 16 pieces on a lightly floured surface. Form each piece into a ball and place in the prepared pan seam side down.
  8. Cover the pan with a towel and rise until puffed, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  9. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and golden, about 20-25 minutes.
  10. Allow to cool in the pan before removing. These sweet potato rolls are best the day they are baked.
