Sweet Potato Butter Biscuits
by Jackie Garvin @ syrupandbiscuits.com/
yield: 16 (2-inch) biscuits
Cook sweet potatoes and let cool.
Dice and chill butter before mixing with flour.
Chunks of butter remaining in the dough will create flaky biscuits.
Ingredients:
2 cups self-rising flour, sifted (I use White Lily)
1/2 cup butter, diced and chilled (one stick)
1 cup sweet potato, cooked, mashed and cooled (approximately 2 small or one medium)
1/3 cup buttermilk
Instructions:
Combine flour and butter by mixing with your hands until it resembles course cornmeal.
Mix sweet potatoes into dough.
Add buttermilk and mix well.
Turn out dough onto a floured surface.
Sprinkle flour on top.
Knead 10 to 12 times. Roll to 1/2 inches thick.
Cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter (or cup or glass or jar, whatever you can get your hands on).
Place biscuits, once inch apart on a baking sheet that’s been prepared by greasing or covering with a baking mat.
Brush tops of biscuits with oil.
Bake at 450 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes or until tops are golden brown.
Honey Cinnamon Butter
1/2 cup softened butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon honey.
Mix well.
