Sweet Potato Biscuits With Honey Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Make the spicy honey butter: Place the butter in a large bowl. Beat with an electric hand mixer on low speed for about 2 minutes, or until smooth. Increase the speed to medium and add the honey, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and cayenne and beat until well combined, about 2 minutes.
• Spoon the butter onto a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll into a log and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. The butter will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
• Make the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the sweet potatoes to the boiling water and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, then mash with a fork or potato masher until smooth. Let cool completely.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
• Add the butter to the flour mixture and toss to coat. Using your hands or 2 forks, work the butter into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together ¾ cup (255 G) of the mashed sweet potatoes and the buttermilk.
• Add to the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix with a fork to combine. Knead the mixture with your hands until it comes together in a shaggy dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 1-inch (2 ½ cm) thick square. Using a large knife or bench scraper, cut the square in half lengthwise, then crosswise into quarters, creating 8 rectangular biscuits.
• Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter. Bake until golden on top, about 20 minutes. Let the biscuits cool on the pan for 10 minutes.
• Serve the biscuits warm with the spicy honey butter.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine sweet potatoes and cream; stir into crumb mixture just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; gently knead 8-10 times., Pat or roll out to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Reroll and repeat once. Place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet., Bake at 400° for 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, beat the butter, honey and cinnamon until blended. Serve with warm biscuits.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Make the biscuits: Place the sweet potatoes, milk and melted butter in a large bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
• Set a sifter or fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl. Resift the 1 1/4 cups flour into the bowl, then sift in the remaining dry ingredients and whisk together. Transfer the dry ingredients to the sweet potato mixture and stir just until a soft dough forms (it'll be pretty sticky).
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured board and toss until smooth. Roll out the dough 1/2 inch thick, then stamp out as many biscuits as you can (about 15) with a 1- to 1 1/2-inch floured biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until just golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the honey butter: Simply whisk together the butter, salt and honey in a small bowl until smooth.
• Serve the sweet potato biscuits warm with the honey butter.

Steps:

• Cut butter into biscuit mix until crumbly.
• Combine the sweet potato and milk. Add to the biscuit mix, stirring with the fork just until moistened. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface and knead 4 to 5 times.
• Pat or roll out the dough to 3/4 inch thickness and cut with 2-inch round biscuit cutter.
• Place on large ungreased cookie sheet bake at 450°F for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Cut in the shortening until pieces of shortening are pea-sized or smaller. Mix in the sweet potatoes, and enough of the milk to make a soft dough.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and roll or pat out to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into circles using a biscuit cutter or a drinking glass. Place biscuits 1 inch apart onto a greased baking sheet.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Cut sweet potato in half lengthwise. Cut each in half again lengthwise, then in half cross-wise. Cut each piece in half to make about 16 evenly sized chunks. Transfer into pot; cover with water and add salt. Bring to a simmer on high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes are tender, about 17 minutes. Drain thoroughly; return to pot and mash potatoes. You will need 1 1/2 cups mashed sweet potatoes. Cool thoroughly.
• Transfer cooled mashed potatoes to a mixing bowl. Add brown sugar and buttermilk. Mix together until well combined.
• Place self-rising flour in a separate mixing bowl. Grate frozen butter into flour, tossing with a fork to coat with flour after each addition of about 1/3 to 1/2 stick. This will prevent butter from clumping. Mixture should look like floury pieces of butter. Add sweet potato mixture. Toss with a fork until evenly distributed, but don't overmix.
• Transfer mixture onto a lightly floured work surface. Push and press mixture together into a rectangular shape, about 1 1/2 inches thick. Dough will be floury and a bit crumbly. Fold rectangle into thirds, lifting up one-third and folding onto the middle and doing the same with the other side. Dust with a bit of flour if sticking.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat.
• Press dough into a rectangle again, about 1 inch thick. Repeat the tri-fold step. Press out into a rectangle, about 1 inch thick. Trim off the rough edges to square off the sides; this will maximize rising. Cut into 8 equal portions. Transfer to prepared baking pan, spacing biscuits evenly. Brush tops lightly with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
• Bake in preheated oven until browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.
• Mix 4 tablespoons butter (room temperature), pomegranate syrup, and pomegranate juice together in a small bowl. Spread on warm biscuits. Sprinkle with a few pomegranate seeds for garnish.

Steps:

• Cook sweet potato in medium saucepan of boiling salted water until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, cool, and mash.
• Position rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Butter bottom and sides of 9-inch cake pan with 1 1/2-inch-high sides.
• Whisk flour and next 5 ingredients in large bowl. Add cubed butter to flour mixture; toss to coat and rub in with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk 3/4 cup mashed sweet potatoes and buttermilk in medium bowl. Add to flour mixture; toss with fork. Gather mixture in bowl, kneading until dough comes together. Turn dough out onto floured work surface and pat into 1-inch-thick round. Using 11/2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits, flouring cutter after each cut. Gather scraps; pat into 1-inch-thick round. Cut out additional biscuits (do not reuse scraps more than once).
• Arrange biscuits side by side in prepared cake pan. Brush with melted butter. Bake until puffed and golden on top and tester inserted into center biscuit comes out clean, about 22 minutes. Cool 10 minutes in pan. Turn biscuits out and gently pull them apart. Cut each biscuit in half crosswise.
• Spread bottom half of each biscuit with mustard, then top each with sliced ham and second half of biscuit. Serve with honey.

Steps:

• If using sweet potato or yam from a can, make sure to rinse the syrup from it before mashing.
• If using a freshly-baked sweet potato, peel, mash, and let cool before using in recipe.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
• With a pastry blender utensil or two knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Stir in the mashed sweet potato, half and half, and honey to make dough.
• Turn out the dough onto a floured surface.
• With floured hands, knead the dough lightly a few times to bring the texture together.
• Roll or pat dough evenly to make it 3/4-inch thick.
• With a floured 2 3/4-inch round biscuit cutter, cut into 8 rounds.
• You will need to gather scraps and re-roll to get 8 rounds.
• Place rounds on prepared baking sheet with a flat spatula and bake 20 minutes or until golden.
• Transfer to wire rack and let cool.
• Good served with ham, cheese, and honey mustard!

Steps:

• Make the biscuits: Heat oven to 375 degrees. Wrap the sweet potato tightly in foil and bake until tender enough for a knife to go in with no resistance, 45 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely. Scoop out 6 ounces/175 grams of cooked sweet potato flesh (about ¾ cup). (The sweet potato can be baked in advance and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.) Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Working quickly, rub or cut the cold butter into the dry mixture using your fingers or a pastry cutter until the butter pieces are the size of peas. (Alternatively, use a food processor and pulse the dry ingredients with the butter to cut in the butter.)
• Add the scallions and toss to coat with the flour mixture. Cut the cooked sweet potato into ½-inch chunks and drop into the bowl, tossing gently to coat with flour so that the pieces stay separated. Make a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk. Use a wooden spoon to stir until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer the dough to a floured work surface.
• Roll the dough into an 11-by-7-inch rectangle. Use a floured spatula to lift one end of the dough and fold over one-third of the rectangle. Fold the other end over the top as if folding a letter. You should end up with a rectangular piece of folded dough. Lightly flour the surface of the dough and roll again into a 12-by-6-inch rectangle. Use a sharp knife to cut the dough into 12 (2-by-3-inch) rectangles. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 1 ½ inches apart.
• Bake until biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, rotating the pan about halfway through, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the biscuits to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving warm.
• While the biscuits bake, make the honey butter, if you like: In a small bowl, combine the butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and salt. Add the honey, and use a fork to cut the ingredients into the butter until incorporated and smooth. Transfer to a small bowl and serve with the warm biscuits. The butter can be covered and refrigerated for up to 7 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the sweet potato, milk and honey just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 5-8 times. Pat out to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-in. biscuit cutter., Place 2 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 400° for 14-18 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm.
