Ingredients:
3 Tbls. unsalted butter
1 1/2 C milk
1 C leftover mashed potatoes (room temperture)
2 tsp. salt
1 Tbls. sugar (or honey)
1 pkg. dry yeast
1/3 C warm water
5 cups flour
Vegetable oil (for coating bowl and pans)
Flour (for dusting work surface)
Directions:
In a small saucepan, melt butter in milk. Let cool to warm or room temperature. In the bowl of a stand mixer with dough hook, combine milk mixture with mashed potatoes, salt, sugar (or honey), yeast and warm water. Add flour and knead with dough hook (or by hand) about 5 minutes, until you have a smooth and slightly glossy dough. Place into an oiled bowl. Cover with plastic or a clean, dry dish towel and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Oil two 9X5-inch loaf pans. Turn dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Divide in half and knead 2 to 4 times. Shape each dough mass into a rectangle, about 9 inches long. Roll each one lengthwise into a log and place seam side down into its own loaf pan. Cover with plastic or a dish towel. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake about 30 minutes, or until loaves sound hollow when tapped. Turn onto wire racks and let cool completely. Serve with butter and honey. Totally tasty and simple to make.
