Baked Honey Ham On Sweet Potato Biscuits With Blackberry Balsamic Drizzle Food

SWEET POTATO BISCUITS WITH HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the sweet potatoes, 2 1/2 cups flour, butter, brown sugar, baking powder, and cream in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or food processor and process until the dough has small lumps of sweet potato and butter remaining.
• Roll the dough out onto floured surface to 1/2-inch thick loosely in the shape of a rectangle.
• Cut into 1 1/2-inch squares for appetizers or 2-inch squares for biscuits. Cook's Note: A dough cutting tool or bench scraper works well.
• Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, not touching, and bake for 15 minutes. Biscuits will be firm but not brown.
• Serve the biscuits at room temperature with slice of honey baked ham and Creole mustard, if desired. Cook's Note: Biscuits are rustic so don't slice ham perfectly, torn slices work well.
