ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sodium bicarbonate
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, well chilled
1 cup cold baked yams, peeled
3/4 cup buttermilk, when needed
directions
Heat the oven to 400 levels F.
Stir the flour, sodium bicarbonate, baking powder, and salt having a fork inside a mixing bowl.
Stop by the butter and toss it within the flour, then work into pieces. Work the butter in to the flour until it resembles oatmeal.
Whip the yams having a fork until it is extremely smooth, then combine it with the bowl. Arrange it in gently but completely together with your fingers. Add 1/2 cup from the buttermilk and stir. Add sufficient additional buttermilk to create a smooth and just slightly sticky dough.
Dump the dough onto a floured surface and knead it 2 or 3 occasions. Flatten it to at least oneOr2 inch thick, you are able to dirty a moving pin with this if you would like, however your hands is adequate all right and eliminate biscuits having a 2 1/2-inch cutter.
Place the biscuits on the baking sheet. Gather the scraps together, pat it lower, and eliminate more biscuits.
Brush the biscuits with buttermilk and bake for around fifteen minutes, until well risen and appealingly browned. Serve hot.
