Citric Acid Free Paleo Sweet Potato Biscuits

Warm, tender, and just a little sweet, these sweet potato biscuits hit that perfect spot between comfort food and clean eating. Citric acid hides in more packaged baked goods than most people realize — from leavening blends to flavor enhancers — so baking from scratch with a short, recognizable ingredient list is genuinely the safest move. Here, cream of tartar and baking soda do the leavening work without any citric acid in sight, and every other ingredient is straightforward enough to verify at a glance. Almond flour and tapioca starch give the biscuits a soft, slightly chewy crumb that holds together beautifully, while the mashed sweet potato keeps them moist and adds a natural earthiness. A touch of maple syrup rounds out the flavor without tipping them into dessert territory. They come out of the oven golden at the edges and pillowy in the center, and they firm up just enough as they cool to make them easy to split and load with your favorite toppings.
