Steps:
- For the sweet potato biscuits: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cayenne. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, cut in the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Stir together the sweet potato and buttermilk in a separate bowl until smooth. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the sweet potato mixture. Add the raisins and combine until it just comes together. Be very careful to not over mix.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead until it comes together. If the dough is too sticky, work in up to 1/4 cup additional flour. Shape into a disk and pat to an even 1- to 1 1/2-inch thickness. With a floured 3-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits. Gather together scraps, and repeat to cut out more biscuits.
- Butter a baking sheet and place each biscuit 1/2 inch apart. Brush with melted butter and bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
- For the peppered pork loin: In a small bowl, stir together the sorghum, salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper and oil. Trim the pork loin of any excess fat, and transfer to a shallow roasting pan (or my favorite, a cast-iron skillet). Rub the pork loin with sorghum and spice mixture, coating evenly. Roast until the internal temperature is 140 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
- For the apple mustard butter: Place the apple chunks in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over low heat. Cook, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon and allspice. Continue cooking over low heat, stirring occasionally, until very thick, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard. (Or if using applesauce, place in a heavy bottomed pot with the sugar and spices and cook until it is thick, 30 minutes or so.)
- For the salad: Toss the arugula, tomatoes and sunflowers seeds in a large bowl. Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Top with the shaved cheese.
- To serve: Split the sweet potato biscuits and spread the apple mustard butter on both sides. Thinly slice the pork loin and place on each of the bottom biscuits. Top with the other biscuit halves and serve with salad on the side.

Steps:
- Make the spicy honey butter: Place the butter in a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on low speed for about 2 minutes, or until smooth. Increase the speed to medium and add the honey, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and cayenne and beat until well combined, about 2 minutes.
- Spoon the butter onto a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll into a log and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. The butter will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
- Make the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the sweet potatoes to the boiling water and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, then mash with a fork or potato masher until smooth. Let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
- Add the butter to the flour mixture and toss to coat. Using your hands or 2 forks, work the butter into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together ¾ cup (255 G) of the mashed sweet potatoes and the buttermilk.
- Add to the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with a fork to combine. Knead the mixture with your hands until it comes together in a shaggy dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 1-inch (2 ½ cm) thick square. Using a large knife or bench scraper, cut the square in half lengthwise, then crosswise into quarters, creating 8 rectangular biscuits.
- Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter. Bake until golden on top, about 20 minutes. Let the biscuits cool on the pan for 10 minutes.
- Serve the biscuits warm with the spicy honey butter.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. With a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal, with some pea-sized lumps of butter remaining. In a small bowl, whisk together sweet potato puree and buttermilk; stir quickly into flour mixture until combined (do not overmix).
- Shape the biscuits: Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead very gently until dough comes together but is still slightly lumpy, 5 or 6 times. (If dough is too sticky, work in up to 1/4 cup additional flour.) Shape into a disk, and pat to an even 1-inch thickness. With a floured 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits as close together as possible. Gather together scraps, and repeat to cut out more biscuits (do not reuse scraps more than once).
- Bake the biscuits: Preheat oven to 425 degrees, with rack on lower shelf. Butter an 8-inch cake pan. Arrange biscuits snugly in pan (to help them stay upright). Brush with melted butter. Bake until golden, rotating once, 20 to 24 minutes.

SWEET POTATO BISCUITS
Chunks of baked sweet potato enhance warm, tender and flaky biscuits, which also get a savory lift from sliced scallions. To achieve distinct biscuit layers, an integral characteristic of this quick bread, keep your butter cold and work quickly when folding. You can chill the dough in between steps if needed to keep the butter solid, because cold, hard butter will help the dough maintain its layered structure in the oven. Serve the biscuits piping hot right out the oven, broken open and slathered with a generous smear of the spiced honey butter. The sweet potato can be baked in advance and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The spiced honey butter can be prepared up to a week in advance.

Steps:
- Make the biscuits: Heat oven to 375 degrees. Wrap the sweet potato tightly in foil and bake until tender enough for a knife to go in with no resistance, 45 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely. Scoop out 6 ounces/175 grams of cooked sweet potato flesh (about ¾ cup). (The sweet potato can be baked in advance and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.) Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Working quickly, rub or cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the butter pieces are the size of peas. (Alternatively, use a food processor and pulse the dry ingredients with the butter to cut in the butter.)
- Add the scallions and toss to coat with the flour mixture. Cut the cooked sweet potato into ½-inch chunks and drop into the bowl, tossing gently to coat with flour so that the pieces stay separated. Make a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk. Use a wooden spoon to stir until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured work surface.
- Roll the dough into an 11-by-7-inch rectangle. Use a floured spatula to lift one end of the dough and fold over one-third of the rectangle. Fold the other end over the top as if folding a letter. You should end up with a rectangular piece of folded dough. Lightly flour the surface of the dough and roll again into a 12-by-6-inch rectangle. Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into 12 (2-by-3-inch) rectangles. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 1 ½ inches apart.
- Bake until biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, rotating the pan about halfway through, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the biscuits to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving warm.
- While the biscuits bake, make the honey butter, if you like: In a small bowl, combine the butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and salt. Add the honey, and use a fork to cut the ingredients into the butter until incorporated and smooth. Transfer to a small bowl and serve with the warm biscuits. The butter can be covered and refrigerated for up to 7 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it's too dry, add a little more buttermilk.
- Be careful not to overwork the dough, or the biscuits will be tough.
- Bake the biscuits in a hot oven until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the biscuits warm with butter, honey, or your favorite jam.
