A delightful twist on traditional potato scones, these griddle cakes are soft, flavorful, and perfect for any meal.
Combine the mashed potatoes, butter, and salt in a mixing bowl until smooth.
Ensure the potatoes are warm for easier mixing.
Gradually add the flour and baking powder to the potato mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Add the flour in small increments to avoid over-drying the dough.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Use a light touch to keep the dough tender.
Cut the dough into circles using a cookie cutter or a glass.
Dip the cutter in flour to prevent sticking.
Heat a griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter.
Ensure the griddle is hot before adding the cakes for even cooking.
Cook the cakes on the griddle for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Flip the cakes gently to maintain their shape.
Serve the griddle cakes warm with your choice of toppings.
Try serving with a dollop of sour cream or a drizzle of honey for added flavor.
