1 cup cool mashed potatoes (I used one large potato)
1 cup bread flour
3 tbsp baking powder
A little less than a tsp salt
3 tbsp butter
1/2 cup milk
Instructions:
Put water on to boil while you peel potatoes and cut into small wedges
Add the wedges to the water and boil until tender
Strain water and mash potatoes using a little butter for moisture
Let sit for about an hour to cool
While waiting, put 1 cup bread flour, 3 tbsp baking powder, and a little less than a tsp salt into a medium sized bowl
Mix with a fork until smooth then set aside
When mashed potatoes are cool melt the butter in a mug until almost entirely melted
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees
Pour butter into dry ingredients and mix (it will be clumpy)
Add 1 cup mashed potatoes and mix
Add 1/2 cup milk (whole or as close to whole as you can is better)
And mix to make a soft batter
On a floured surface knead for 15 seconds then roll out into 1/2 inch thick dough
Use a cookie cutter or glass to make biscuit rounds
Put on baking sheet and place in the oven for 9 minutes (time may vary so check at 7 mins the first time that you make them)
Serve hot!
