First off, I followed the recipe exactly. While the flavor of these was good, something about the proportions of the ingredients seems off. The dough was very wet and sticky; so much so that it wouldn't hold it's shape. I ended up with sweet potato flat breads instead of rolls. I'll probably make these again but reduce the amount of wet ingredients to get a more typical dough consistency.

I have a passion for re-instilling the love of good-quality, home-made and mostly healthy food into the hearts and kitchens of children and their families today. I believe that any ?homemade? food, even when labelled as naughty, is a more wholesome treat than pre-packaged, cookie-cutter junk.</p>
