1 cup mashed potato
2 cups gf flour blend
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 Tbls *cf margerine, melted
1/2 cup almond or potato milk

Recipe
Grate the raw potatoes into a bowl.
Turn out onto a cloth and wring, catching the liquid.
This will separate into a clear fluid with starch
at the bottom.
Pour off the fluid and scrape out the starch and mix
with the grated and mashed potatoes.
Sieve the dry ingredients and mix in along with the melted margerine.
Add a little potato or almond milk (if necessary) to make a pliable dough.
Knead lightly on a floured surface.
Divide into four and form large, flat cakes.
Mark each into quarters but do not cut right through, and
bake on a griddle or in a heavy pan.
If liked, more milk sub and an egg can be added to make a batter which can be fried like drop scones.
