Ingredients
- • sweet potato: 1 medium, peeled and cubed
- • warm water: 1 cup (240 ml)
- • active dry yeast: 2 1/4 teaspoons
- • whole wheat flour: 2 cups (240 g)
- • all-purpose flour: 1 cup (120 g)
- • olive oil: 3 tablespoons
- • fresh rosemary: 2 tablespoons, chopped
- • fresh thyme: 1 tablespoon, chopped
- • fresh parsley: 2 tablespoons, chopped
- • salt: 1 teaspoon
- • maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
- • garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 Steam the sweet potato cubes until tender, about 10 minutes. Then mash them into a smooth puree and set aside to cool.
- 3 In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and maple syrup. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- 4 Add the sweet potato puree, olive oil, 1 tablespoon of rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, and garlic powder to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
- 5 Gradually mix in the whole wheat and all-purpose flours until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- 6 Roll the dough into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle the remaining rosemary evenly over the surface.
- 7 From the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut the log into 8 even pieces and place them, cut side up, in a greased baking dish.
- 8 Cover with a clean towel and let them rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes until slightly puffy.
- 9 Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Vegan Sweet Potato and Herb Spiral Rolls are incredibly versatile. Serve them warm with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt for an elevated taste. Pair them with a hearty vegetable soup or a fresh mixed green salad to create a balanced meal. For a refreshing beverage, consider a glass of sparkling water with a slice of lemon or a hot cup of herbal tea. These rolls are perfect for brunch gatherings or as an accompaniment to your favorite vegan pasta dish.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, place them in a resealable plastic bag and freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, thaw them at room temperature and warm in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes to maintain their fresh-baked texture.
