Sweet Potato Biscuits with Honey Butter image

We often think of sweet potatoes in a supporting role as a side dish, mashed, baked whole, cubed and roasted. Here's another thought-why not give them a starring role for breakfast when made into biscuits? Served with cinnamon-honey butter, they're all kinds of awesome. -Cathy Bell, Joplin, Missouri

The biscuits were a little dry, but the honey butter helped. I think I'll try adding some mashed bananas next time.
