Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 3 1/4 cups bread or all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 2/3 cup (about 1 1/2 medium) Yukon Gold potatoes, boiled and mashed
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt

Instruction

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine all ingredients and mix until well combined, or until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Pour dough on a lightly floured counter top and knead about 5-10 minutes, or until the dough is soft and smooth.
  • Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down and shape into an batard, or oval shape, pulling the sides down and under to tighten the top of the loaf. Place the dough in a greased 8 x 5-inch loaf pan, cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake dough for about 30 minutes or until golden brown on the top. Allow to cool 10 minutes in loaf pan before removing from the pan and letting cool completely on a wire rack.
