Sweet Potato Biscuits

2/3 cup soy milk
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup sweet potatoes, mashed, cooked

Preheat oven to 450 F.  In small bowl, combine soy milk with lemon
juice.  Set aside.  (Mixture  will thicken and resemble buttermilk.)
In medium bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda
and  salt.  Set aside.  In large bowl, combine oil and mashed sweet
potatoes.  Alternately add dry ingredients and soy milk mixture to
sweet potatoes to form a soft dough.  Turn out onto a lightly
floured work surface and knead briefly.  (Don't  overwork or biscuit
will be tough.) Pat dough into a 12 x 9-inch rectangle  about 1/2
inch thick.  Cut dough with a floured round biscuit cutter.  Place
biscuits on a baking sheet, spacing about 1/2 inch apart.  Bake
until golden, about 8 to 10 minutes.  Serve warm.
