Forget everything you know about dry healthy baking. These sweet potato cinnamon rolls are the softest, gooiest treats you will ever make. Using sweet potato in the dough ensures a naturally moist texture without the need for refined flour or heavy oils. They are gluten-free, dairy-free, and absolutely spectacular for a cozy weekend morning.
