- 107 ml non-dairy milk

- 135 g all-purpose flour

Instructions
Make the purple sweet potato filling:
- In a bowl, combine the warm mashed purple sweet potato with granulated sugar and avocado oil and mix to incorporate. Set aside.
Make the dough:
- In a small bowl, combine the warmed non-dairy milk with sugar and add in the yeast. Give it a stir and let it become foamy, about a few minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, add in the flour, avocado oil, and the activated yeast mixture.
- Knead until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
- Lightly grease and place the dough in the bowl. Cover with a tea towel and let it rise in a warm location, until doubled in size.
- Once the dough has risen, deflate and divide the dough into 6 equal balls.
- Roll the dough into a 5" x 4" length rectangle.
- With a knife of spatula, evenly smear the sweet potato filling over the entire surface of the dough.
- With a sharp knife (or dough scraper), make vertical slits along the bottom of the dough appx 2" in length. (Don't cut the entire dough).
- Then roll the dough from the uncut side down towards the slit end.
- Carefully coil and seal the two ends together and place onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Repeat with the remainder.
- Cover the buns loosely with a tea towel and let it rise until slightly puffy.
- Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
- Bake the buns at 350°F/177°C for 13-15 minutes, until buns are lightly golden.
- Let cool and enjoy the buns freshly made.
