Sweet Potato Drop Biscuits (grain-free)

Is there anyone who can resist a good biscuit? I sure as heck can’t. Especially when it’s stuffed with savory cheddar cheese and flavorful chives from my porch garden! These Sweet Potato Drop Biscuits are made from mashed sweet potatoes and coconut flour, and they’re super easy to make! Just mix the ingredients together, plop them on a pan and bake.

When they’re done, you’ll have delicious, soft biscuits that are perfect to serve alongside any main dish. These are more moist and dense than your average biscuit, but if you’re following a paleo or grain-free diet, you HAVE to make yourself some Sweet Potato Drop Biscuits. They’re delicious. Trust.

    Just wondering if there is a substitute that could be used the cheese? Or would it work to omit the cheese completely?

      Simply omit the cheese and these should still be great!
