Ingredients
Wet ingredients
- 3/4 cup heated non dairy milk such as almond, soy, light coconut or oat
- 3/4 cup sweet potato puree or well mashed cooked sweet potatoes ( if your sweet potato purée is extra moist, use 1/2 cup +2 tablespoons)
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 tsp vinegar apple cider or white
- 3 tbsp maple syrup or sugar of choice
Dry ingredients
- 3 to 3.5 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
Filling
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2-3 tbsp oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix in all of the wet ingredients until well combined.
- In another bowl mix all the dry ingredients really well.
- Add 2.5 cups of flour mixture into the wet and mix well. Depending on the consistency of your sweet potato puree/ mash and the sweetener used, you will need few tbsp or up to a cup of flour to make the mixture into just slightly sticky dough. You don’t want to overwork the door as the more you mix and knead , sweet potato purée will leak more moisture)
- As soon as the mixture is dough like, bring it together. Cover the bowl with a towel and let it sit for least half an hour. The dough will rise a bit.
- Transfer the dough on a working surface and using some flour, Lightly roll it out into 11x15 inch rectangle.
Filling:
- You can go two ways with the filling. Mix the sugar, cinnamon and oil to form a paste and then spread that onto the dough. Usually this requires lot more oil.
- The other option is to brush the oil on the rolled out dough, mix sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture on top.
- Once the filling has been spread, use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 1 to 1.5 inch wide strips.
- Roll each of the strips tightly to form your cinnamon rolls.
- Place the rolls in a well-greased baking dish. For the amount of dough, you will need at least a 9 by 13 baking dish. Bake the buns at 375F(190C) for 25-30 minutes. Once done, remove them from the oven, and serve warm.
