Crissi’s Sweet Potato Biscuits

Ingredients

• 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1/4 cup evaporated milk, heated
• 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.

Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, wheat germ, baking powder, and salt. Mix in butter, evaporated milk, sweet potatoes, milk, and nutmeg, stirring by hand until dough is smooth.

On a lightly floured board, roll out the dough until it is about 1/2-inch thick. With a sharp knife, cut into 3-inch squares or diamonds. Place squares on greased baking sheet, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.
