Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
------- ------------- --------------------------------
1 1/4 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup unbleached white flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tabblespoons margarine
1/3 cup apple juice
1 cup well-mashed cooked sweet potato
3 tablespoon honey
1/3 cup finely-chopped pecans or walnuts

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, sift together the flours, baking powder and salt.
Work the margarine in with a pastry blender or the tines of a fork
until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add the apple juice, sweet
potato, honey and nuts and work them in to form a soft dough.
Turn the dough out onto a well-floured board and knead in just enough
extra flour to make the dough lose its stickiness.
With floured hands, divide the dough into 16 equal parts. Shape into
small balls and arrange on a lightly oiled cookie sheet, patting them
down a bit to flatten.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the
center of one tests clean. Transfer the biscuits to a plate and serve
hot.

This recipe yields 16 biscuits.
