Potato Scones
Ingredients:
* 2 cups warm mashed potatoes
* 3 tablespoons melted butter or bacon fat
* 2/3 cup flour
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* Butter, honey or pancake syrup
Blend the potatoes with the butter or bacon fat in a mixing bowl. Stir in as much of the flour as the potatoes will take without becoming too dry. Turn out on a floured surface; roll to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into circles; prick tops with a fork.
Heat a greased cast-iron griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook scones until brown on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn; cook to brown other side, 5 minutes. Serve warm with butter, honey or syrup.

2 cups mashed potatoes
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup unbleached flour, plus a little more
Wash peel, and boil the potatos-- about three medium ones.
Mash them, and measure out two cups. If you are using leftover mashed potatoes, adjust the butter and salt downwards according to how much they already have in them. Stir in the salt and the butter, then beat in the egg. Stir in the flour and the baking powder; mix well. Add a little more flour if needed to make a soft but workable dough. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll out each section of the dough to about 1/4" thickness on a floured board. Bake them on a lightly greased griddle or skillet at the same temperature that you would cook pancakes, for about 5 minutes each side. They should feel dry but pliable, and have some light brown blisters. Keep them warm in a damp towel in the oven as they are cooked. Serve hot.
