• Sweet Potato Biscuits

    Made with fresh baked sweet potatoes, these biscuits are yummy in the morning or as an appetizer in the evening.  My favorite time to enjoy their warm comforting goodness is for breakfast.  Bake the sweet potatoes the night before to easily prepare the biscuits the next morning.

Recently I ...
