Thanksgiving is next week! How did that happen? Are you ready? Do you have your menu finalized? We aren’t hosting this year, but we will be making my favorite brussels sprouts, the best cranberry sauce, pumpkin cake, and Sweet Potato Rolls. Homemade rolls are a MUST on Thanksgiving and these easy sweet potato dinner rolls are our favorite! You need to make them this year!
Sweet potatoes are in my top 5 favorite foods of all time. I LOVE them! Put them in a homemade dinner roll, best thing EVER, especially when they are served warm with lots of honey butter or homemade jam. YES!
Tips for making Sweet Potato Rolls
Make mashed sweet potatoes in advance. This is a great recipe for using up leftover mashed sweet potatoes. We use active dry yeast for this recipe. Let the rolls rise in a warm spot. We have a proof setting on our oven, but if you don’t, find the warmest spot in your house. We like to make cloverleaf rolls, where you form the dough into three balls and let them rise in a muffin tin. The boys call them Mickey Mouse rolls:) If you want to make regular dinner rolls, you can form the dough into rolls and bake in regular pans. The rolls are SO good served warm with honey butter. The rolls freeze well. Cool completely and place in a freezer bag for up to one month.
We hope our Sweet Potato Rolls make an appearance on your Thanksgiving table this year. Warning, they won’t last long. Our boys devour these rolls every time we make them. They are a family favorite and we hope you enjoy them too! And if you don’t have time to make them for Thanksgiving, you can make them for Christmas, Easter, or to go with any meal! They are a great roll for any occasion! If you like these Sweet Potato Rolls, you might also like:
