This recipe uses:
Step 1
To create dough, begin by whisking together vigorously the flour and 2 tsp salt and sugar.
Step 2
Work the 2 sticks of butter into dry mix by squishing butter and mix together with thumbs, fingers, and knuckles. Work until mixture becomes coarse meal with flattened chunks of butter.
Step 3
Add 1/4 cup of Bison Sour Cream, incorporate using a fork.
Step 4
Form dough into a ball and flatten into a disk, with smooth consistency. Make sure there are no cracks in the dough disk.
Step 5
Sprinkle disk with flour and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill in refrigerator for at least an hour.
Step 6
Remove dough from fridge and let sit for 5-10 minutes at room temperature. Divide dough into 2 balls.
Step 7
Sprinkle flat surface with flour and roll dough, making sure the bottom isn’t sticking. If dough is sticking, add a little more flour to the surface. Roll out each dough 12-14 inches wide, with an even thickness. Set aside one disk for pie crust, and one disk for cinnamon roll toppers.
Step 8
Preheat oven to 450°F.
Step 9
Place sweet potatoes on a greased sheet, and coat with vegetable oil. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for one hour. Let cool until warm enough to handle.
Step 10
Remove skins and add sweet potato to a large bowl with 2 Tbsp of melted butter, and mash.
Step 11
Add to bowl 1/3 cup of Bison Sour Cream, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, vanilla, 2 eggs, milk, remaining salt, and 2 Tbsp of flour.
Step 12
Use an electric mixer to blend until filling is smooth.
Step 13
Create egg wash in a small bowl. Add the remaining egg and heavy whipping cream, whisk until egg wash is a pale yellow. Set aside.
Step 14
Transfer pie crust to a 9-inch pie plate and crimp edges. Apply egg wash with a pastry brush.
Step 15
Pour sweet potato pie filling into pie dish and bake for 30 minutes.
Step 16
Begin cinnamon rolls by melting 1 Tbsp of butter. Set butter aside. In a small bowl, add 1 tsp cinnamon and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar. Mix together well.

Brush other rolled out pie dough with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar mixture. Roll pie dough tightly into a cylinder and cut into 1/4 inch slices.
