Nitrate & Nitrite Free Paleo Sweet Potato Biscuits

Sweet potato biscuits that are fluffy, golden-edged, and completely free of processed preservatives — yes, this is real life. The dough comes together with almond flour, tapioca starch, and roasted sweet potato, so every bite has a subtle natural sweetness and a tender, pillowy crumb. A touch of maple syrup rounds out the flavor without tipping into dessert territory, while coconut oil keeps things rich without any of the additives you'd find in shelf-stable baking mixes. For anyone avoiding nitrates and nitrites, the challenge is often hidden preservatives lurking in packaged convenience foods — but every single ingredient here is clean and straightforward. You simply pat the dough, cut your rounds, and bake until the edges turn lightly golden. They firm up beautifully as they cool, making them sturdy enough to split and top however you like. Batch them on a Sunday and you'll have a wholesome, satisfying biscuit ready to grab all week long.
