Sweet Potato Disk's

This recipe was orginally gonna be a mod of this one: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Sweet-Potato-Biscuits-361611?mbid=ipapp   
But quickly became different. I removed things like the butter, I am not one of the people that dislike fat I feel its very good to have a high fat diet but I limit dairy...not much good comes from it!

These go great as a side to most dinners as well as just something to snack on, I ate 2 on a ride and worked great!
