Found this recipe today at http://bunnyswarmoven.net/ and think it would be perfect for Thanksgiving!
I never bake anything with yeast but I may just try making these.

Sweet Potato Dinner Rolls
Ingredients:
One .25 oz
pkg active dry yeast
3 Tablespoons
brown sugar
1 Tablespoon
white sugar
1/2 cup
mashed sweet potatoes, can used canned sweet potatoes as well
1/2 cup warm
water ( 110 degrees)
3 Tablespoons
butter, softened
1 Teaspoon
salt
2 eggs,
slightly beaten
3 1/2 cups
bread flour or all purpose flour
Directions:
Dissolve
yeast, warm water and 1 Tablespoon white sugar in a large bowl. Let stand 5
minutes or until yeast is bubbly and has risen up.
Add the brown
sugar,sweet potato, butter, salt and eggs to the bowl. Beat with
electric mixer on low till ingredients are well mixed.
With the
mixer still on low speed, add 3 cups of flour to the bowl, mix until flour is
just incorporated . Turn the dough out onto a clean lightly floured
surface. Knead the dough and add enough flour ( you have a 1/2 cup
remaining flour) to make a soft tacky dough. If you need more flour to
achieve a soft , elastic tacky dough use slightly more. Do not over knead the
dough.
Place your
soft, elastic slightly tacky dough in a large bowl coated with oil, turn the
dough in the bowl so all sides are coated with oil. Place in a warm,
draft free place to rise, cover the top of the bowl with a clean kitchen
towel. Let rise till double in size, about an hour.
Punch the
dough dough, let it rest for 2 minutes. Divide the dough into 16 pieces
rolled into balls. Place in a greased 13x9 inch baking pan. Place
in a warm draft free place to rise covered with a clean kitchen towel.
The dough will double in size and come up to the top of the pan but not
over the pan.
Bake at 375
degrees for about 20 minutes or until roll tops are golden brown.
Remove from the oven, let cool.
Yum!
