Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup butter or margarine
1 ½ cups leftover mashed potatoes
1 egg, beaten
⅓ cup cold water
⅓ cup milk
2 tablespoons milk, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter, until pieces of butter are no larger than peas. Use a fork to stir in mashed potatoes, breaking them up into chunks. Make a well in the mixture, and pour in egg, water and milk. Stir into a loose dough using the fork.
  • Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead for 6 or 8 times so the dough holds together. Pat the dough out to about 3/4 inch thickness, and cut into circles with a biscuit cutter or drinking glass. Place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet. Brush the tops with 2 tablespoons milk.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until bottoms are golden.

Time 2h5m

Yield 8 to 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup warm (90 to 110 degrees F) water
1/2 ounce (2 packages) active dry yeast
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, cold, cut into small squares, plus 4 tablespoons, melted
2 cups buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 3 tablespoons of the sugar.
  • In a small bowl, combine the warm water with the yeast and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; stir until the yeast is dissolved. Let stand until bubbles appear, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Using your hands, mix the 1 cup cold butter into the flour, breaking the butter into small pebbles, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk and the yeast mixture. Gently fold the flour into the wet ingredients. Keep mixing until a ball starts to form, then gently knead, 12 to 15 times, to create a smooth dough. Cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and press out to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick. Fold the dough in half, press again to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick, and then fold again. Cut the dough using a 2- to 3-inch round biscuit cutter, depending personal preference. Brush the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with some of the melted butter. Place the biscuits in the skillet; brush the tops with melted butter.
  • Bake until golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes, depending on size. Brush again with melted butter and serve immediately.

HOMEMADE SWEET POTATO BISCUITS



Homemade Sweet Potato Biscuits image

These biscuits are slightly sweet and really round out a Thanksgiving feast.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Yield Makes about 36

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled
1 package active dry yeast
6 tablespoons plus a pinch of sugar
1 cup milk, room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick), plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for bowl and plastic wrap
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon salt
4 1/2 to 5 cups sifted bread flour

Steps:

  • Cut the sweet potatoes into 1 1/2-inch slices. Place the potato slices in a medium saucepan, and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender. Drain and mash well.
  • In the detached bowl of an electric mixer, whisk yeast, 1/4 cup warm water (105 degrees), and a pinch of sugar. Set the mixture aside until foamy, about 6 minutes. Attach bowl to mixer fitted with the dough-hook attachment. On low speed, add mashed potatoes, milk, 1/2 cup melted butter, eggs, sugar, and salt. Slowly add flour to make a slightly sticky dough. Knead until smooth, about 2 minutes. Brush inside of a mixing bowl with butter. Place dough in bowl; cover with buttered plastic wrap. Set aside to rise until doubled in size, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Line 3 large baking sheets with parchment. Using a floured rolling pin on a floured work surface, roll dough out to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut rounds of dough as close together as possible with a 2 1/4-inch round cookie cutter. Scraps can be re-rolled once. Place rounds 1 to 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops with the remaining butter; cover with plastic wrap. Set aside to rise until light and they do not spring back when pressed with a finger, about 30 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake until biscuits are golden brown, about 14 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes before serving.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h20m

Yield 10 2" biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 envelope)
1/2 cup buttermilk (or other milk)
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup warmed mashed potatoes (about 1 medium potato)
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or bread flour)
beaten egg, milk or cream, for glazing

Steps:

  • Stir the yeast into 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl and set aside. Slowly warm the buttermilk with the butter and sugar in a small pan(buttermilk may curdle, but it will smooth out in the end).
  • When the butter has melted, pour the liquid into a bowl and beat in the potatoes, salt, 1/4 cup of the flour, and the proofed yeast. Cover and let stand until light and foamy, about 30 minutes.
  • Stir in the remaining flour until no more can be added easily, then knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise until doubled in bulk, 45-60 minutes.
  • Turn it out, then roll into a circle about 1/3" thick and cut into 2" rounds. Place on a lightly greased sheet pan, cover, and let rise again until nearly doubled, 45-60 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400*F.
  • Brush the biscuits with the beaten egg(or milk or cream) and bake until the biscuits are golden, about 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your biscuits.
  • Make sure your butter and buttermilk are cold. This will help to create flaky biscuits.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough.
  • Be patient. Making biscuits takes time. Don't rush the process.

Conclusion:

Yeasted potato biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are perfect for special occasions or everyday meals. With just a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a batch of fluffy, golden brown biscuits that will be a hit with everyone at the table.
