Here is the idea, for this recipe you can used any basic bread roll of your favourite. I just throw some idea.

This was start with, I have leftover pizza dough, that need to be immediately cooked as it yeast based. My daughter was super curious with the idea of making mini pizza and we make plenty pizza dough. Then she think that she have enough mini pizza, et voila leftover dough.

Basically this was create base on my random act of “don’t know what to do with this leftover”, didn’t had anything significant in my pantry, and I didn’t want something heavy, but I had baked sweet potatoes in my oven. Skeptical too, but I was ready for anything as a result.

Then I was thinking about cinnamon roll, as quite sometime I don’t have it and feel like kind of missed it. This kind of experiment that, “well this turned not so bad”. I don’t want something super sugary and heavy like traditional cinnamon roll.

SO, I mashed sweet potatoes for more or less 1 cup, mix it with 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 2 tbs brown sugar (you could used less, but I want something to balance the dough) 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon. and that’s it. AND by the way for the bread dough I used from allrecipe website, find for pizza dough, it was more like American style pizza with thick pillowy bread, but you can used any of your favourite bread recipe.
