Ingredients:
- 3-4 cups starchy potatoes diced
- 8 oz all-purpose flour
- kosher salt to taste
- 2-3 tbsp vegan butter
Instructions:
Peel and dice the potatoes. We often leave the peel on if we are using organic or homegrown potatoes.
In a saucepan, boil the potatoes for approximately 10-15 minutes until tender.
Drain the potatoes and then mash them with vegan butter.
Next, mix in the salt and flour until you have a smooth dough.
Form three balls with the dough.
Dust a wooden board and rolling pin with flour, and then roll each ball of dough into circles about 18cm / 7 inches wide.
Cut each circle into quarters.
Heat a lightly greased griddle or heavy-based pan, and then cook the scones for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Best served warm, store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in a pan or toaster, or freeze.
- When using organic or homegrown potatoes, we often leave the peel on.
- If vegan butter isn't available, refined coconut oil will suffice.
