Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 slices bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup butter, frozen
2/3 cup mashed canned sweet potatoes (from 15-oz can)
2 tablespoons buttermilk
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450°F. In large bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt; stir in bacon and thyme. Shred frozen butter, using large holes of grater; add to flour mixture and toss to coat. Stir in sweet potato and buttermilk just until soft dough forms.
  • Place dough on lightly floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead lightly 4 or 5 times. Press or roll dough to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with floured 21/2-inch biscuit cutter. On ungreased cookie sheet, place biscuits about 1 inch apart.
