Potato Scones
Description
These tattie scones are similar to potato pancakes and are a traditional Scottish and Irish breakfast dish made with leftover mashed potatoes cooked on a hot griddle until golden brown.

•
1 pound cooked potatoes

Gather all ingredients. Heat a lightly greased griddle or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

Mash potatoes with flour, butter, and salt in a large bowl until a stiff dough forms.
