Mashed Potato Biscuits are so easy to make and a wonderful way to use any leftover mashed potatoes. We love these delicious biscuits with butter and honey. These are a great way to start the day and keep well in an airtight container and reheat well too.

This recipe uses just basic ingredients and is one of our favorites, especially after any holiday gathering! We always make a lot of mashed potatoes and if we have any leftover, these are on our breakfast menu the next day! You can easily cut this recipe in half if you wanted too.
You can use this Buttermilk Substitute if you don’t have buttermilk on hand.
