Butternut Squash Sage Biscuits
These Butternut Squash Sage Biscuits are a slightly sweet biscuit, very moist with a hint of savory sage. I think it’s a great accompaniment to a savory meal such as chili or ham to balance your taste palate. This rustic recipe is adapted from an 18th century Charlottesville, VA recipe for sweet potato biscuits. I adjusted the shortening amount and added some plant butter…and of course used butternut squash alongside ground sage. This recipe makes sixteen 2 ½ inch diameter sized biscuits.
Most of the time, my immediate family members are my taste testers. For this recipe I’d like to give my step son, Hayden, a big thank you for trying this one…and liking it enough to eat THREE! (That just makes me all kinds of happy😊) He has gotten really brave this past year with trying new and unusually things and giving great feedback…thanks Hayden!
