I had some sweet potatoes waiting to be used and I wanted to try something different other than my go-to muffins. So I went to Weelicious.com and simply typed in sweet potatoes. My results were a ton of great things I need to try.
I settled on the recipe Sweet Potato Biscuits. Other than muffins, I don’t make many bread recipes. I don’t have the patience for the yeast rising and up until recently I haven’t been able to do the whole floured surface and rolling thing. I finally started using a pastry mat – what a dream come true. Before, I was using my counter which no matter how many times I washed it it was never clean enough and no amount of flour stopped things from sticking. But when using a pastry mat and not needing to use yeast and wait I thought this recipe might be doable. I was wrong.
My first mistake was not really reading the instructions. Now I normally forget an ingredient or two when I screw up a recipe but not this time. This time I felt I knew better. Actually it was - I don’t have the patience to do it the way the recipe says. So instead of pulsing the dry ingredients and then dough I just turned the food processor on. Well over mixing my dough did one thing – it caused my biscuits not to rise. They looked like pancakes. I was hesitant to even try them out. But if I expected my toddler to try them I had to do the same. So my husband and I gave them a shot. For the dense-ness of them not rising they were actually pretty good. Will (our toddler) actually ate his too. So surprisingly this was a success for the tasting just not for the chef. Lesson learned to follow the instructions, well hopefully.
