Discover our Spiced Sweet Potato and Black Bean Swirl Rolls recipe. Nutrient-rich, plant-based rolls for a healthy homemade bread experience.
Ingredients
- • whole wheat flour: 2 cups
- • sweet potato puree: 1 cup
- • canned black beans (rinsed and mashed): 1 cup
- • warm water: 1/2 cup
- • active dry yeast: 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons)
- • coconut sugar: 1 tablespoon
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • ground cumin: 1 teaspoon
- • smoked paprika: 1 teaspoon
- • garlic powder: 1/2 teaspoon
- • sea salt: 1 teaspoon
- • freshly cracked black pepper: to taste
- • fresh cilantro (chopped): 1/4 cup
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2 In a small bowl, dissolve the coconut sugar in warm water and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
- 3 In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, salt, cumin, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Stir in the sweet potato puree, olive oil, and the yeast mixture until a dough forms.
- 4 Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if necessary to prevent sticking.
- 5 Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Spread the mashed black beans evenly over the dough and sprinkle with chopped cilantro and black pepper.
- 6 Carefully roll the dough lengthwise into a log and cut into 8 even pieces. Place the rolls, cut side up, onto the prepared baking sheet.
- 7 Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through. Let them cool slightly before serving.
Serving Suggestions
- • Serve these Spiced Sweet Potato and Black Bean Swirl Rolls warm as a wholesome accompaniment to your favorite soups or salads. Their hearty texture and savory-sweet flavor make them an excellent pairing with a fresh green salad tossed in lime vinaigrette or a spicy black bean soup. For a complete meal, consider serving these rolls with a side of grilled vegetables and a refreshing glass of iced herbal tea. The combination of warm rolls and cool tea creates a delightful balance of flavors and temperatures.
Storage Tips
To store leftovers, allow the rolls to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. Keep them at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, freeze the rolls in a freezer-safe bag for up to one month. To reheat, thaw them at room temperature and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-10 minutes.
