Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 1 medium sweet potato)
- 0.25 cups whole milk
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, mix the mashed sweet potatoes, milk, and honey until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Use a round biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuits.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about an inch of space between them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm with additional honey or butter, if desired.
