Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound (about 4) sweet potatoes
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, chilled
1/4 cup milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Wash sweet potatoes, and prick all over with a fork. Place on a baking sheet; bake until soft, about 1 hour. (The juices will start to run out.) When cool enough to handle, scoop out flesh and press through a sieve (you should have 1 3/4 cups of puree). Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cayenne. With a pastry cutter or two knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • In another bowl, whisk together milk and sweet-potato puree. Add to dry ingredients, and mix until well combined.
  • Place dough on a lightly floured surface; knead once or twice, and pat out to 1/2 inch thick. Cut out biscuits with a floured 2-inch-round cutter. Bake on parchment-lined baking sheet until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

These biscuits were a waste of time and ingredients. They were dense and flavorless.

The biscuits didn't rise as much as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I found that the biscuits were a bit dry. I think I'll add some extra milk or butter next time.

These biscuits were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I'll probably use less cayenne pepper next time.
