As a busy mom of three, I'm always looking for ways to make healthy meals that my family will love. These low fat sweet potato biscuits are a hit with everyone at my table, and they're so easy to make. I love that they're a healthier version of a classic recipe, but they don't sacrifice any of the flavor.

Step-by-step
- Drain sweet potatoes. Mash thoroughly.
- Add applesauce, splenda, and baking powder. Mix.
- Slowly knead in the flour. (Additional flour may be required to achieve proper biscuit dough consistency depending on amount of liquid in potatoes.)
- Bake at 450 for 8 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 8 minutes or until biscuits just begin to brown.
