Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups mashed potatoes (about 3 medium peeled raw potatoes)
  • 1/2 cup warm water

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt
  • Add warm mashed potatoes and water to the dry ingredients
  • Mix until a sticky dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes
  • Let dough rest in a greased bowl, covered, for 1 hour until doubled in size
  • Shape into a loaf, place in greased 8 1/2x4 1/2-inch loaf pan, and let rise 30-45 minutes
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C), bake for 35 minutes until golden
  • Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely

Notes

Warm mashed potatoes activate the yeast more effectively
Brush with non-dairy milk before baking for a glossier crust
Store sealed in plastic wrap for up to 3 days at room temperature
