Peel and bake a medium-sized potato until soft, then mash it to make 1 cup of mashed potato and set it aside to cool slightly.
In the bread machine pan, add the ingredients in the following order: warm water, mashed potato, melted unsalted butter, and honey.
Sprinkle the salt evenly over the wet ingredients.
Add the bread flour, spreading it evenly over the liquid mixture.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast.
Place the pan into the bread machine and secure it in place. Select the Basic or White Bread setting (typically 3-3.5 hours), and choose the desired crust color (light, medium, or dark).
Press the Start button to begin the mixing, kneading, and baking process.
After the baking program ends, carefully remove the pan from the bread machine (it will be hot, so use oven mitts).
Turn the bread out onto a wire cooling rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
Serve the bread as a side with butter, or use it for sandwiches and toast!
