Delicious Sweet Potato Scones - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
    3 cups self-rising flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    6 tablespoons butter
    1 cup white sugar
    1 cup raisins
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add sweet potato, cover, and steam until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Strain into a bowl and mash until smooth.
    Mix flour and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or a fork until mixture is crumbly. Stir in sugar, raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Add 3 cups mashed sweet potatoes; mix until dough comes together.
    Turn dough out onto a floured work surface; divide in half. Pat each half into a circle the size of a large dinner plate. Cut each circle into 8 wedges. Transfer wedges to two 10x15-inch baking sheets.
    Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
