Ingredients
Scale
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes (about 1 medium sweet potato)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a bowl, mix the mashed sweet potatoes, melted butter, and milk until smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the sweet potato mixture and stir until a dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead lightly.
Roll out the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness and cut into rounds using a biscuit cutter.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
Use freshly cooked and mashed sweet potatoes for the best texture.
If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
