Yield: 1 Servings

Ingredients and directions for this recipe

1 1/4 c Cooked yams; mashed
2 c All-purpose flour
2 ts Sugar
1 ts Salt
3 ts Double acting baking powder
1/2 c Vegetable oil
1/2 c Milk

Preheat oven to 425xF. Place the yams into a bowl and set aside. In another

combine oil and milk; add to yams and blend well with a fork. Add the flour
mixture and mix lightly with the fork just until the mixture holds
together.

until the pastry is smooth and holds together. On a floured surface roll
out the pastry to 1/4 inch thickness and cut with a floured biscuit cutter.
