My sister-in-law, Amanda, always makes sweet potato rolls for Thanksgiving and she kindly provided me with the recipe for when I'm feeding a large group of church folk. They received many compliments this week :)
2 cups sweet potatoes, mashed
2 cups syrup from can, if not enough syrup, use milk- warmed
3/4 cup sugar
3 Tbs yeast
2 tsp salt
3/4 cup butter
4 eggs
9-11 cups flour
Proof the yeast in the warmed juice/milk, and some of the sugar. While proofing, mix remaining ingredients together in order given, excluding flour. Mix well before adding yeast mixture. Add just enough flour to make
soft dough. Knead on floured surface until the right consistency. Cover and let rise until double (about 60-90 minutes). Punch down, and make into rolls and let rise again for 30 mins. Bake at 350 15-20 minutes.
Makes 65 rolls.
