Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup warm water
2 1/2 teaspoons yeast (1 package)
2 cups flour
1 1/4 cups cornmeal
1 cup sweet potato, grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Sprinkle to yeast over the warm water in a large bowl. Let stand 5-10 minutes, until foamy.
  • Stir in remaining ingredients.
  • Knead 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. (Compared to traditional breadstick dough, this may feel oily, and won't develop such obvious gluten strands.).
  • Cover and let rise about an hour, until doubled in bulk.
  • Preheat over to 350°F.
  • Roll dough into 8-10-inch-long sticks and place on a greased baking sheet. Thinner sticks (pencil-sized) will be crunchier and have more of a caramelized taste. Thicker sticks (finger-sized) will have distinct crust and bread textures.
  • Bake about 10 minutes, until lightly browned.

These breadsticks are a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I always have a few on hand and now I know what to do with them!

I love that these breadsticks are made with whole wheat flour. They're a healthier option than traditional cornbread.

These cornmeal sweet potato breadsticks were a hit! They were easy to make and had a delicious, slightly sweet flavor. I served them with a side of honey butter and they were perfect.
