Mashed potato biscuits are one of my favorites. I love mashed potatoes and I love biscuits. I can make a meal off these biscuits with butter and honey.
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup shortening
1 cup mashed potatoes (I use regular mashed potatoes that I have leftover, not instant)
1 egg
1 tablespoon honey
3/4 to 1 cup buttermilk
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in shortening until mixture is like coarse crumbs. Add mashed potatoes, egg and honey mixing with a spoon. Add milk until mixture makes a dough and turn out onto a floured board. Roll or pat out and cut with biscuit cutter. I get about 20 biscuits from this recipe. Place on sprayed baking sheet. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes until brown on top. Yummy!

can you use instant mashed potatoes
I don’t think they would be as good. I have never tried them but they might work.
can you use butter if you dont have shortening?
Yes, I think you could use butter.
What a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes(we always seem to have some) , can’t wait to try this because I love biscuits. Thanks!
can you use self rising flour?
I dont have buttermilk…do you think whole milk would work ok?
You could try it. I think it would.
Can you freeze these?
I never have any to freeze but I would say you could.
My daughter loves mash potatoes. She is going to be in heaven when I make these.
I was trying to think of something different to do with my mashed potatoes from last night! Thanks for the inspiration Judy!!!
Do you have a cookbook to sell of your recipes? All of them sound and are delicious and I’d love to share your recipes with my Mom and Mother In Law in the cookbook version.
Sorry, Belinda, I don’t have one.
