Recipe: Potato Bread

Ingredients

Peel and cut potatoes, then boil until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and reserve ⅔ cup of water.
Mash the cooked potatoes and let them cool.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine milk, butter, sugar, and salt. Microwave for about a minute and stir until melted.
Add the reserved potato water to the mixture and let it cool if too hot.
Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and add yeast and egg, whisking until mixed.
Add the mashed potatoes and mix thoroughly, then gradually add flour until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 6-8 minutes.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 ½ to 2 hours until doubled.
Punch down the dough and divide it in half.
Flatten each piece into a rectangle, fold, and place into greased loaf pans.
Allow to rise for an additional 30 minutes until risen above the pans.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-40 minutes, checking for doneness with a thermometer.
Cool completely before slicing and enjoy.
