Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Water (warm)
- 0.5 cup Mashed potatoes (plain, no butter or seasoning)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 cups Bread flour
- 2 tablespoons Dry milk powder
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Add all the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, this means adding the wet ingredients (water and mashed potatoes) first, followed by the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, salt, and dry milk powder). Make a small well in the flour and add the yeast last.
Place the pan into the bread machine, close the lid, and select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting.
Choose your preferred crust color (light, medium, or dark) and press start.
Allow the bread machine to complete the mixing, kneading, rising, and baking process. This typically takes about 2.5 to 3 hours, depending on your bread machine model.
Once the bread is finished baking, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine and turn the loaf out onto a wire cooling rack.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
Store leftovers in an airtight container or plastic bag at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
