Ingredients:
4 tsp yeast
3 TBS sugar
3/4 cup warm water
1 cup sweet potato puree
3/4 warm milk
1 egg (slightly beaten)
1/4 cup butter (melted)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups all purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups oat flour
1 tsp salt
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. (Man, I am getting so good at telling people to preheat!) Add the yeast and sugar to the warm water, and let it sit until it gets all frothy. We have done this before, so you should know what frothy looks like. Combine all of the wet ingredients (yeast mixture, potato puree, milk, egg, butter, and oil) together.

Add 1 cup of each flour to the wet ingredients, stirring, by hand, until well combined. Add the remaining flour a little at a time, until it gets too hard to stir. At this point dump the mixture out onto a floured surface, and knead in any remaining flour, adding a little more white flour if the dough seems too sticky.
Before kneading. |
Dump the dough out onto a floured surface, and flour the top.
Roll the dough out into a large oval.
Cut the dough into slices.
And tie slices into knots
My slices were not all even, so I used 2 on some rolls, and just one on others. Whichever way you decide to form rolls, your yield should be about 2 dozen. Put them on a sprayed cookie sheet, and let them rise for about 15 minutes. At this point stick them into your pre-heated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the tops start to brown.
Viola! Tasty rolls that you can feel good about! Let me give you a few hints before you actually make the rolls though. First, you don't need to buy oat flour for this recipe, all you really need is oatmeal and a blender.
