Ingredients:
1 cup warm mashed potatoes
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
salt, to taste
1/2 cup plain flour
Directions:
Preheat a dry frying pan or griddle over moderate heat.
Mix together all the ingredients until thoroughly blended.
Turn the dough onto a floured board and divide into three.
Roll into a circle about 1/4 -inch thick.
Cut each circle into 6 wedges.
At this point, you may freeze some of the scones – they will last for weeks and weeks and weeks in the freezer.
Sprinkle the hot griddle with flour and bake each circle for about 5 minutes, until the edges begin to brown, turning once to cook both sides.
For a really tasty variation, use a 50/50 mix of mashed potatoes and mashed rutabagas and/or mashed carrots.
