Bake these spiced sweet potato turmeric rolls for a flavorful, health-boosting bread experience. Perfect for clean eating enthusiasts!
Imagine the aroma of freshly baked rolls filling your kitchen, but with a surprising twist that not only tantalizes your taste buds but also nourishes your body. Our Spiced Sweet Potato & Turmeric Artisan Rolls do just that, combining the earthy sweetness of sweet potatoes with the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric. These rolls are not only a feast for your senses but also a powerhouse of nutrients.
Sweet potatoes are known for their high fiber content and beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, which is essential for healthy vision and immune function. Turmeric, often lauded for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, adds a warm, golden hue and a slightly peppery flavor. This combination creates a unique bread that stands out from the usual offerings while embracing the principles of clean eating with whole and natural ingredients.

Bake these spiced sweet potato turmeric rolls for a flavorful, health-boosting bread experience. Perfect for clean eating enthusiasts!
Ingredients
- • sweet potato: 1 medium, peeled and diced
- • whole wheat flour: 2 cups
- • all-purpose flour: 1 cup
- • active dry yeast: 2 1/4 teaspoons
- • warm water: 1 cup (110°F or 43°C)
- • honey: 2 tablespoons
- • turmeric powder: 1 teaspoon
- • ground cinnamon: 1/2 teaspoon
- • salt: 1 teaspoon
- • olive oil: 3 tablespoons
- • pumpkin seeds: 1/4 cup
- • fresh rosemary: 1 tablespoon, chopped
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 Boil the diced sweet potato in a small pot of water until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
- 3 In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water with honey. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
- 4 Stir in the mashed sweet potato, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, and olive oil into the yeast mixture. Gradually add the whole wheat and all-purpose flours, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- 5 Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Incorporate the pumpkin seeds and rosemary during the last few minutes of kneading.
- 6 Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- 7 Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a roll and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- 8 Cover the rolls with a dry cloth and let them rise again for 30 minutes.
- 9 Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Spiced Sweet Potato & Turmeric Rolls are delightful on their own but can be elevated with a smear of avocado or a dollop of hummus for added flavor and nutrients. Pair them with a fresh green salad or a hearty vegetable soup for a complete and balanced meal. For a beverage pairing, consider a refreshing mint and lemon iced tea, which complements the warmth of the rolls' spices while providing a cooling contrast.
Storage Tips
Store these rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze the rolls in a resealable plastic bag for up to 2 months. To maintain their freshness, reheat frozen rolls in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until warmed through.
