Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F, and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Place the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine. 
  • Add the mashed sweet potato and butter, and cut in with a pastry blender. 
  • Stir in the buttermilk until the dough gathers itself into a ball.

  • Cut rounds with a 2-inch diameter cutter, and place on the prepared baking sheet. 
  • Bake for 12 to 16 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown on the bottom and around the edges.
