Sweet Potato Rolls for Thanksgiving

Warm, homemade rolls are an essential part of any Thanksgiving feast, and Ree Drummond has perfected the art of making them from scratch. This year, she's putting a delicious twist on the classic by creating sweet potato rolls.

Ree starts by mixing the wet ingredients - whole milk, lemon juice, melted butter, eggs, honey, and grated garlic. She then adds a packet of instant yeast and turns on the mixer on low to combine everything.

Next, Ree incorporates the star of the show - sweet potatoes. She used a 10-ounce package of frozen sweet potatoes, microwaved them until warm and mashed them. Ree adds the sweet potatoes to the milk mixture, allowing the warmth to help activate the yeast.
