Scottish Potato Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a lightly greased griddle or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
• Mash potatoes with flour, butter, and salt until a stiff dough forms.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead dough lightly and roll dough out to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into six triangular wedges.
• Working in batches, cook scones, turning once on hot griddle until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in plenty of salted simmering water until tender. Drain well and mash. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl, add the butter, milk, eggs, mash and plenty of seasoning and mix to a sticky dough.
• Heat some butter and a little oil in a large frying pan. Fry dollops of the mixture as you would Scotch pancakes for 3 mins on each side until browned. You may need to do this in 2 batches so keep the fried ones warm in the oven. Serve with crisp bacon and grated mature cheddar, or blue cheese and a drizzle of honey.

Steps:

• Mash potatoes, add salt and butter and flour to give a stiff mixture.
• Turn out onto floured surface, knead lightly and roll out to a thickness of 1cm (1/2inch).
• Cut into triangles and cook on a hot greased griddle for 4-5 min on each side.
• Serve hot
