Description

Fluffy, tender, and slightly sweet sweet potato biscuits that are perfect for breakfast or as a side dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (can substitute with gluten-free flour)
  • 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes (roasted or boiled)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup cold butter (cut into small pieces)
  • 1/4 cup milk (whole, almond, or oat milk)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add the cold butter pieces to the flour mixture and incorporate until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Incorporate the mashed sweet potatoes into the flour mixture, ensuring there are no lumps.
  5. Pour in the milk and honey gradually, mixing until just combined.
  6. Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and gently knead it a couple of times.
  7. Using a round cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.

Notes

For dairy-free, substitute milk with almond or oat milk; for vegan, replace honey with maple syrup.
