Amazing Sweet Potato Biscuits

2 cups of flour

1 Tbsp of baking powder

1 tsp of salt

1/4 tsp cinnamon

(combine)

Add

1/4 cup of butter

3 Tbsp butter-flavored shortening

Use fingers or a pastry cutter to combine. Mix should resemble cornmeal. Should, but won't. Who do these pastry chefs think they're fooling?

6 Tbsp buttermilk

1 cup of well-mashed sweet potatoes (I boiled them with 2 tsp of salt)

Stir until all the dry ingredients have been incorporated. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead several times. Roll out to a thickness of 1/2". 

Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes.
