Southern Sweet Potato Biscuits Recipe

October 18, 2011

My sister and I would hop off of the college bus at the finish of the driveway to see Grandmother standing at the best of the drive waving to us. We didn’t have enormous backpacks like the children now have, so we’d shift our books around as we raced each and every other up the driveway to see which a single would be the first to get our afternoon hugs. Like she constantly did however, she’d tuck one particular of us beneath one particular arm and the other one particular under the other arm and give us a great massive hug at the very same time. Then, as we went in and place our factors down, we every got one more massive hug as we began telling her all about our day.

We would sit at her extended wooden kitchen table as we did our homework, but I admit I had a difficult time concentrating as I watched her move about in her kitchen. Moving from one particular element of the kitchen to one more, lifting a lid here, stirring the pot there, and undertaking it all as quietly and gracefully as if she were a butterfly. She was remarkable to view.

She would conserve a few items for us to support her do when we finished our homework – clearing and setting the table, putting the ice in the glasses, and helping her minimize the biscuits to put in the oven. Somehow, she was often capable to make a way for my sister and I to each be concerned in the biscuit making.

As the weather began to get cooler for fall, she’d start to make her sweet potato biscuits. Their orange coloring and somewhat sweet taste was always welcome and we’d get thrilled realizing that Halloween, Thanksgiving and then Christmas have been near.

Each time I make sweet potato biscuits now for my loved ones, it’s tough not to keep in mind individuals afternoons with her in her kitchen. Sharing the stories with Tiny Buddy of these afternoons together make them even a lot more particular.

Here’s my family Sweet Potato Biscuits recipe. I hope you adore them as much as we do!
