Ingredients

2 1/4 cups Pioneer® Buttermilk Biscuit & Baking Mix
3/4 cup sweet potato puree (about 1 medium sweet potato, cooked, peeled and mashed)
2/3 cup whole milk
3 tbsp honey, divided
1 tsp ground cinnamon, divided
4 tbsp salted butter, melted

These Sweet Potato Biscuits are made with Pioneer baking mix for the tender, flaky texture that lets the natural sweetness and warm cinnamon of the sweet potato shine through in every single bite.

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep Pan

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. Mix the Dough

    Combine the Pioneer Buttermilk Biscuit & Baking Mix, sweet potato, milk, 2 tablespoons of honey and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon in a large bowl, just until a soft dough forms.

  3. Cut and Bake Biscuits

    Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently fold in half 2-3 times. Pat into a 1-inch thick circle and cut out biscuits using a 2-3-inch round cutter. Place onto the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden-brown, about 10-12 minutes.

  4. Make the Honey Butter

    Meanwhile, combine butter, remaining honey and remaining cinnamon in a small bowl.

  5. Brush and Serve

    Brush biscuits with honey butter mixture before serving warm.
