• 1 cup warm mashed potatoes
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
• salt, to taste
• 1/2 cup plain flour

1. Preheat a dry frying pan or griddle over moderate heat.
2. Mix together all the ingredients until thoroughly blended.
3. Turn the dough onto a floured board and divide into three.
4. Roll into a circle about 1/4inch thick.
5. Cut each circle into 6 wedges.
6. At this point, you may freeze some of the scones – they will last for weeks and weeks and weeks in the freezer.
7. 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.

Being of Scottish descent, a bacon and egg breakfast just isn't a bacon and egg breakfast without tattie scones!
