Very good! I didn't have lemon juice so I skipped that. Still turned out well. Thanks! -
These were so yummy! I made it for dinner when my brother and sister-in-law came over. before i even put them in the oven my sister-in-law kept putting her fingers in so dough saying"Yummy" everyone went on and on about them. I added regular and chocolate mint to the sweet potato while i bolied it and then mashed it into the sweet potato. was a nice addition. thanks for a great recipe. this is a new one for our dinner(and breakfast) table! -
These were excellent! Made them for T-day dinner and they were great with cran sauce. i used bran flour instead of whole wheat and they turned out a little to bran-ish for some, tho.

Well, these turned out great! I didn't have sweet potatoes, so I substituted for unthawed frozen squash. The dough was very moist and too liquid to make a ball. So, I folded the dough like a muffin mix and baked them in muffin tins. They were the best. I now have a base for a savory biscuit/muffin or a sweet biscuit/muffin.
