The amount of flour you use will depend on the type of potato used. You may use all or less of the flour.
My take on Irish Potato Scones
Potatoes are a very versatile tuber vegetable. They can be fried, baked, boiled, mashed, roasted. This is my take on the Irish potato scone I call potato cake. They serve these scones hot with maple syrup, golden syrup or butter.

Ingredients
- 2 cups boiled mashed potatoes
- 2/3 cup flour
- 3 Tbsp butter, (not margarine)
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Mash potatoes, add butter and salt. Add as much flour as potatoes will take without becoming too dry. Turn out onto a floured board, roll until 1/4 inch thick. Cut out circles and prick all over with a fork.
- In a non stick frypan dusted with a little flour, I cooked on medium high heat. When darker small spots appear they are cooked. Put on a plate and cover with foil and put in the oven to keep warm, while you cook the others.
- Serve hot with what ever meats you cook.
