I found this for you,rather simple and easy too
Potato Scones
1 cup warm mashed potatoes
1/3 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
Preheat a 12-inch seasoned cast-iron frying pan or griddle over
moderate heat.
Mix together all ingredients until thoroughly blended. Turn the dough
out onto a floured board and divide into thirds. Roll into a circle
about 1/4 inch thick. Score each circle into 6 wedges.
Sprinkle the griddle with flour and bake each circle for about 5
minutes, until edges begin to brown, turning once to cook both sides.
Serve hot or cold.
Yield: 18 scones
Here is a bit of history about them too.Iam a history buff,so I enjoyed learning about the potato scones,LOL.
"Potato scones reflect the influence of the scottish in the maritimes and
their adaptibility in using the famous p.E.I. Potato...Scones were a
favorite scottish tradition. According to _a treasury of nova scotia
recipes_ "the difference between bannock and scone (which the scots rhyme
with 'on', not 'bone') is that the bannock is a rather large, round cake,
and the scone is a smaller triangle or 'farl'..But local usages vary
considerably, scots being strong individualists.
A similar recipe for german buns appears in an ontario cookbook from the
kitchener area, where german settlers were predominant.
When their majesties king george vi and queen elizabeth visited government
house in halifax on june 15,1939, scones were served. And canadian brits
gathered for "tea at the empress" in victoria for scones and tea."
