Holiday Recipe: Sweet Potato Bisquits


Hi all! Here again with another yummy holiday recipe that's easy on you and the animals.
1 cup mashed cooked sweet potatoes (2 small baked sweet potatoes)
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup all-purpose or whole wheat pastry flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground nutmeg
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Coat baking sheet with cooking spray or use parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Combine sweet potatoes, oil, syrup, vinegar and salt in large bowl.
Sift in flour, baking powder and nutmeg.
Cut dry ingredients into sweet potato mixture with fork until mixture comes together.
Stir in 2 to 3 Tbsp water, or enough to get the dough to hold together.
Drop golf ball-size rounds of dough onto prepared baking sheet.
Bake 15-17 minutes, or until tops are lightly browned and firm to the touch.
Serve warm.
Following the recipe, you should get 12 drop biscuits.

I've just bought 3 HUGE Sweet Potatoes but I really don't think there'll be any leftovers, I'll have to buy three more!
