🛒 Ingredients
For the Biscuit Dough
- 1 cup cooked, mashed sweet potato (plain & cooled)
- 1 ½ cups oat flour (or blended rolled oats)
- ½ cup whole wheat flour (or use all oat flour for gluten-free)
- 1 egg

Optional Boosters

👩🍳 Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potato
Boil or bake sweet potato until soft. Mash until smooth and let cool completely.
Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a bowl, combine mashed sweet potato, peanut butter, and egg. Stir until smooth.
Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients
Mix in oat flour, whole wheat flour, and flaxseed if using.
Stir until a dough forms.
If too dry → add water 1 tbsp at a time.
If too sticky → add extra oat flour.
Step 4: Roll Out the Dough
Lightly flour your surface and roll dough to ¼ inch thickness for crisp biscuits.
Step 5: Cut Into Shapes
Use cookie cutters or cut small squares/strips with a knife.
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 6: Bake Until Crisp
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 18–22 minutes, or until dry, firm, and lightly golden.
Step 7: Cool Completely
Let biscuits cool on a rack—crispness improves as they cool.
