How To Make sweet potato biscuits

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 425.
  • 2
    In a mixing bowl, sift together the flours, baking powder and salt.
  • 3
    Work in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
  • 4
    Add apple juice, potato, honey and nuts and work until it resembles a soft dough.
  • 5
    Turn dough out onto a well-floured board and knead enough extra flour to make the dough lose its stickiness.
  • 6
    With floured hands, divide dough into 16 equal parts.
  • 7
    Shape into small balls and arrange on a lightly oiled cookie sheet, patting them down a bit to flatten them.
