Step 1

1. Place sweet potato and water in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook until the sweet potatoes tender, 10-15. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking liquid in a small bowl. Drain and transfer the sweet potato to a food processor

Step 2

2. Add oil, vinegar and salt and puree, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed until smooth, about 1 minute

Step 3

3. Combine warm milk, yeast and sugar in a small bowl, let stand for 5 minutes. Add the yeast mixture, flour and 1 teaspoon caraway seeds to the food processor. Pulse until a slightly sticky dough forms. If it is too dry, add the reserved cooking liquid, one tablespoon at a time with the motor running just until the dough ball forms

Step 4

4. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 2 minutes, sprinkling with more flour if it sticks. Shape into a ball and transfer to a bowl coated with cooking spray. Covered with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm, draft free place until the dough doubles in size, about 1 hour

Step 5

5. Coat a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray
