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.

I've tried many sweet potato biscuit recipes, but this one is by far the best. The biscuits are light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness and spice.
