This was one of my great-grandmother's favorite recipes. I'm 87, so you can bet this recipe has stood the test of time! I like to make these biscuits often during winter since they're a good complement to any hearty meal...very tasty when served hot with butter! Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached self-rising flour |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes |
4 to 5 tablespoons 2% milk |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening and sweet potatoes until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough milk just until dough clings together. Knead lightly on a floured surface.
2. Roll dough to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-in. biscuit cutter and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 450° for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.
