Sweet Potato Burger Buns

Sweet potato burger buns are astonishingly delicious!

Being completely honest here, when I say these sweet potato burger buns actually are really good. I’m not joking.

Before starting, best to note that the absolute key to these turning out is awesome is choosing some seriously large sweet potatoes. The fatter the potatoes, the bigger the buns.. and we want them to be at least big enough for the burger. So be aware of that prior to starting this lol.
