How To Make sweet potato biscuits

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, sift together the flours, baking powder and salt.
Step 3

Work in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Step 4

Add apple juice, potato, honey and nuts and work until it resembles a soft dough.
Step 5

Turn dough out onto a well-floured board and knead enough extra flour to make the dough lose its stickiness.
Step 6

With floured hands, divide dough into 16 equal parts.
Step 7

Shape into small balls and arrange on a lightly oiled cookie sheet, patting them down a bit to flatten them.
Step 8

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
Step 9

Serve hot with Creamy Mushroom Soup.
