How to Make Cinnamon Scented Sweet Potato Chapati

  1. Lightly spoon all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour into separate dry measuring cups, leveling with a knife.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 cup cooked and mashed sweet potato, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  4. Gradually add 3/4 cup to 1 cup warm water, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. You may need slightly more or less water depending on the consistency of your sweet potato.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  6. Divide the dough into 16 equal portions and shape each into a smooth ball.
  7. Working with one ball at a time, roll each into a 4-inch circle using a lightly floured rolling pin.
  8. Heat a medium cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until hot.
  9. Cook each chapati for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and puffed. You may need to adjust the heat to prevent burning.
  10. For extra puffiness (optional): Once cooked, place each chapati on a cooking rack over a gas burner (or directly over a low flame on your stovetop) for a few seconds per side to puff up the bread further. Use tongs to carefully rotate and avoid burning.
  11. Serve warm and enjoy! These chapatis are delicious on their own or with your favorite curries and dips.
