7 cups Unbleached all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons instant (rapid rise) yeast
4 Tablespoons sugar
&frac; cup nonfat dry milk powder
&frac; cup instant mashed potato flakes
1 Tablespoon kosher salt
&frac; cup butter (softened)
2 large eggs
2-2&frac; cups warn water (about 110°)

Recipe

Mix together dry ingredients. Melt the butter in the warm water. Beat the egg into the butter/water mixture. Pour into dry ingredients and mix well. Knead the dough until it becomes shiney and elastic (about 10 minutes). Add additional water if the dough is too stiff.

Place dough in greased bowl, turning it over, to coat it. Cover, and rise for 1-2 hours, until it has doubled in size and is puffy looking, in a draft free place.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured (or greased) work surface. Divide dough in half. Form into two loaves.

Place each loaf in a well-greased 9 inch bread pan. Cover and let rise for another 1-1&frac; hours.

While bread is in the second rise, pre-heat your oven to 375°. Place bread in oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. When bread is done, it will sound "hollow" when tapped on the bottom of the loaf.

Notes: If working on a granite or marble work surface, when kneading the dough, I have found that spraying the work surface with cooking spray, rather than flouring it, actually works better, as sometimes we add too much flour to the dough during the kneading process, which leads to a dry loaf.

Hi, If you like potato bread you will like these. Irish potato scones. Quicker and easier to make. 450g of potato boiled, drained and mashed. (You can use cold leftover but theyre not as light) Add 2 teasp salt, 25 to 50g butter and 100 g of flour. Mix together then knead lightly roll to half inch thick and cut into squares or triangles. Cook on a greased griddle for about 5mins each side. I have in my time added baking soda, cheese, bits of ham, onion and cooked them in the oven.
