SWEET POTATO
BISCUITS
1
1/4 cups Whole wheat flour
1/2 cup Unbleached white flour
2 teaspoons Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
3 tablespoons Margarine
1/3 cup Apple juice
1 cup
Well mashed, cooked sweet potato
3 tablespoons Honey
1/3 cup Finely chopped walnuts or, -
pecans
Preheat
oven to 425F.
In a mixing bowl, sift together the flours, baking
powder & salt. Work in the margarine till
the mixture resembles
coarse breadcrumbs. Add apple juice, potato, honey & nuts & work
till
it resembles a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a well-floured
board & knead enough extra flour to make the dough lose its
stickiness. With floured hands, divide dough into 16 equal parts. Shape
into small balls & arrange on a lightly oiled cookie sheet, patting
them down a bit to flatten them.
Bake for 12 to 15
minutes
