Ingredients

1 pound cooked potatoes
4 ounces self-rising flour
2 ounces butter
0.5 pinch salt

Instructions

Begin by gathering all the necessary ingredients. Preheat a lightly greased griddle or a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the potato scones.
In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes with flour, butter, and salt. Mix thoroughly until a stiff dough forms, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead it and roll it out to a thickness of approximately 1/2 inch. Use a knife or cutter to divide the circle into 6 equal wedges, shaping the scones.
Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, place the potato scones on the preheated griddle. Cook until they achieve a golden-brown color, approximately 4 to 5 minutes on each side, ensuring they are cooked through.
