2. While potatoes are still warm add flour, yeast, sugar (100gms), butter, eggs and warm milk. Gradually bring up speed to speed 8 and combine for 6-8 seconds.

3. Turn out on floured surface an cut dough into smaller pieces. With rolling pin roll out onto a circle about 1 cm thick. Using a large scone cutter cut out pieces.

just wondering if you have tried to oven bake these?
They were slighty chewy today. Very pleased with the recipe, thanks for uploading.
