Potato Bread
Pane-Bistecca
That I like to bake bread, you may have noticed already. After all, there are 99 entries here on the blog under bread, not only with home-baked breads, but also with bread made dishes. However, I also like to bake after recipes from friends. I found a wonderful bread that appealed to me a lot at LanisLeckerEcke!
I’ve always wanted to use mashed potatoes in bread, just never dared. When I saw her wonderfully fluffy bread, well, it had to try!!! And as a plus, it was baked in a pot, which I love. I gave it a try and swapped out the white flour for whole wheat. The bread turned out wonderfully moist and I have to admit, it couldn’t be easier!!! Thank you, Lani!

Ingredients
For one big loaf of 800 g:
650 g strong Bread Flour
15 g Salt
11 g Dried Yeast
400 ml Water
250 – 300 g mashed Potatoes
Instructions

Step 1
For the mashed potatoes, peel the potatoes, boil in salted water until cooked, drain the water (and keep it!). Mash the potatoes with approx. 30 g butter and leave to cool. You can also use mashed potatoes from the day before.

Step 2
Fill up the collected potato cooking water to 400 ml and dissolve the yeast in it. Put the flour and salt in a mixing bowl, add the mashed potatoes and the water/yeast mixture and knead for about 10 minutes using a food processor. The dough will be quite runny and sticky due to the mashed potato.

Step 3
Place the dough in a large bowl and leave to rise for 2 – 2 1/2 hours until the dough has increased in size. Transfer to a well-floured proofing basket and dust the top of the dough with flour again.
