Maple Walnut Cinnamon Rolls

These were inspired from a recipe for sweet potato bread I found!

Maple Walnut Cinnamon Rolls

Serving Size… 1 roll

Yield… 4 rolls

                ½ medium sweet potato, skin removed and cooked

                ½ cup cashews

                3 pitted medjool dates

                2 eggs, whisked

                1 tsp cinnamon

                ½ tsp vanilla extract

                ¼ tsp baking soda

                Pinch sea salt

For the inside

¾ cup walnuts, chopped

1 tsp cinnamon

            3 tbsp maple syrup

            1 tsp coconut oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Run the dates and cashews through a food processor until well combined. Place the date paste in a bowl and add the cooked sweet potato. Mix in the eggs, cinnamon, vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Place in a 8x12 inch baking pan and cook for 15-18 minutes. Remove from pan. While the bread is baking, place coconut oil in a small skillet and add chopped walnuts. Let the walnuts toast for a minute or two, then add cinnamon and maple syrup. Spread your sticky mixture onto the sweet potato bread and then roll the bread, like a cinnamon roll. Let cool slightly before cutting into four discs.
