   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2 1/2           cups  all-purpose flour -- 281g
   1         tablespoon  baking powder -- 15g
   2          teaspoons  kosher salt -- 6g
   1           teaspoon  instant yeast -- 2g
      1/2      teaspoon  baking powder -- 2.5g
   6        tablespoons  unsalted butter -- cold, cubed (84g)
      1/4           cup  chopped fresh sage -- 8g
      1/2           cup  buttermilk -- whole, cold
      1/4           cup  honey -- golden (85g)
   1                cup  sweet potato, mashed -- chilled
                         melted butter -- for brushing

Preheat oven to 425F (220C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, yeast, 
and baking soda. Using a pastry blender, cut in cold butter until 
mixture is crumbly. Stir in sage.

In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and honey. Quickly stir 
buttermilk mixture into flour mixture until combined (do not 
overmix). Stir in sweet potato.

Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead very gently 5 
or 6 times until dough comes together but is still slightly lumpy. If 
dough is too sticky, work in up to 1/4C (31g) more flour.

Shape dough into a disk, and pat to 1" thickness. Using a 2" round 
cutter dipped in flour, cut dough, rerolling scraps as necessary. 
Place biscuits on prepared pan. Brush with melted butter.

Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 min, rotating pan halfway through baking.
