Begin by boiling or steaming your potatoes until they are tender, about 15–20 minutes. Peel and mash the warm potatoes.

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Make a well in the dry ingredients, then add mashed potatoes, melted butter, and warmed milk. Stir until a sticky dough forms.

Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead gently for about 5 minutes.

Shape into a round disc about an inch thick and score the top with a shallow ‘X’ pattern.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake for about 25 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
