Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 0.5 cup Instant potato flakes
- 3 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
Instructions
Place the ingredients into your bread machine's pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, liquids go in first, followed by dry ingredients, with yeast added last.
Pour 1 cup of water and 0.25 cup of milk into the bread machine pan.
Add 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of sugar.
Sprinkle 0.5 cup of instant potato flakes evenly over the liquid ingredients.
Add 3 cups of bread flour, making sure to cover all the liquid.
Create a small well in the flour with your finger or a spoon, and add 2.25 teaspoons of instant yeast into the well. Ensure the yeast does not come into contact with the liquid at this stage.
Close the bread machine lid, select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting, and choose your preferred crust color (light, medium, or dark). Set the machine to the 1.5-pound loaf size, if applicable.
Press start and allow the bread machine to knead, rise, and bake the bread. This process typically takes around 3 hours, depending on your machine.
When the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts. Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy your freshly baked instant potato bread with butter, jam, or as the base for sandwiches!
