A few weeks ago I bought a pineapple sage and a lemon thyme plant at the farmer’s market. They were to join the other potted flowers on my little balcony in an effort to welcome spring and bring a little beauty to my outdoor space. I had never seen pineapple sage, nor did I really know much about its existence before that moment. What made me buy it was the intense pineapple-y smell it gave off when I rubbed the leaves. I was sold. I didn’t really know at the time how I would end up using it, but I figured I if anything I could make some tea with it if all else failed.These biscuits came together last week rather quickly as I was thinking about something to have along with some fresh strawberries as an afternoon snack. My little pineapple sage plant caught my eye as I was standing at the window trying to figure out how the birds had already devoured all of the millet I put out in the bird feeder the day before. A lightbulb went off as I walked outside to cut off some of the leaves and in the next few minutes, I had these biscuits in the oven. They are flecked throughout with pineapple sage and grapefruit zest and lightly sweetened with a bit of coconut sugar. As you can see, I enjoyed mine with some fresh strawberries but they are tasty enough on their own.
