Step 1

Peel and chop the sweet potato into cubes, steam for 15-20 minutes until completely soft. Mash into a puree and set aside in a bowl to cool completely.

Step 2

To a large mixing bowl, add the water, yeast and maple syrup. Mix and allow to stand for 10 minutes, until the mixture begins to froth.

Step 3

Add the cooled sweet potato and mix until combined.

Step 4

Add the flour and salt to the sweet potato mixture and stir until it comes together as a dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until the dough is smooth. Put the dough in a large oiled bowl and cover with clingfilm. Allow to rise for 60-90 minutes until the dough has doubled in size.

Step 5

After rising, turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll into a rectangle, approximately 12 inches by 18 inches.

Step 6

Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Melt the coconut oil or vegan butter and spread across the dough, leaving a half inch gap on all sides.

Step 7

Sprinkle over the sugar mixture then roll the rectangle along the long edge into a spiral. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 16 equal pieces and arrange in a greased pan with about 1 inch between each one.

Step 8

Cover with cling film and allow to rise again for a further 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 170°C and bake for 20-25 minutes.

Step 9

Allow the rolls to cool then mix together the powdered sugar and almond milk. Drizzle the frosting over the rolls and serve!
