Mine didn't turn out as thick and beautiful as the photo, but they were still yummy! I might just use a round biscuit cutter next time. I think moving the triangles to the baking sheet messed up their shape a little bit.

These guys live up to their name. Very pillowy indeed! And making them the day before worked great for our family gathering :)

This has all my favorite things: coconut oil, sweet potato, and cardamom. Can't wait to try the recipe!

What is the purpose of the coconut oil? Looking at the cholesterol content.. Less than butter? Lighter?

Good question, Chrissy. I started cooking with more coconut oil due to so many reports I was reading that it had gotten a black eye for saturated fat that it didn't deserve. And that it actually was good for you. And I liked the slight coconut flavor it contributed without adding a coconut texture I didn't want in the roll.

Do you think that coconut flour would be ok too?

I'm so sorry I didn't see this. I'm still figuring out coconut flour, but I've learned that I can't always do a 1 for 1 replacement with it when substituting for other flours. But if the AP flour is still the main flour, and you'd only be using the coconut flour to switch out the brown rice flour, it might be ok. But I don't have any experience to base that opinion on. If you try it, I'd love to hear how it works!

do you think these would work with an all purpose gluten-free flour subbed in for the all purpose?

I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. Please let me know how it goes!

What do you recommend substituting for the brown rice flour? can I use a low gluten flour like rye instead?

That could be a really interesting combination, or you could just use gluten-free all-purpose flour. Bobs Red Mill has a great one!
