Sweet potato sliders

Using self raising flour is a well known bread hack, but blending it with sweet potato to make some soft dinner rolls is probably not as well known.  I use the microwave potato cook function to cook the sweet potato and this means you really only take a total of 1 hour (includes rest and bake time) to whip up these buns!


INGREDIENTS

130g cooked sweet potato

130g self raising flour

1T oil


METHOD

Preheat oven to 200C. Line a tray with baking paper (I used a 20cm square baking tin)

In a pyrex bowl, combine the sweet potato and the self raising flour. Mash and stir with a fork until the sweet potato is smashed and a dough ball begins to form

Add the oil and knead a soft dough ball - until it is smooth. Don’t overknead - you want to keep the dough soft and pliable

Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll the dough between your hands to form 4 balls. Place on baking paper and bench rest for about 30 minutes

Bake the rolls for 20 minutes


We had ours with cauliflower soup and served with butter
