Makes 2 loaves
Ingredients
Directions
Preheat oven 450°F.
- In a small cup, dissolve the
package active dry yeast in the 1/2-cup lukewarm water, in which
you boiled potatoes.
- Pour yeast mixture into a large
mixing bowl.
- Add the water, sugar, salt, and
stir.
- Sift flour 3 times. Gradually
add the flour to the yeast-water mixture.
- You only want to add 4 cup of
flour.
- Attach bowl and dough hook to

- Turn to Speed 2 and mix until
smooth.
- Continue until dough clings to
hook and cleans sides of bowl, about 2 minutes.
- Knead on Speed 2 for 2 minutes
longer.
- Place in large greased bowl,
cover tightly with plastic wrap, and set in warm place until
double in size.
- Then knead again, adding more
flour if necessary.
- Chop in the butter and set aside
in the bowl in a warm place for an hour to rise.
- Shape into loaves and place the
loaves in greased [3-1/2 x 7-1/2 inch] loaf pans.
- Half fill the pans with dough
and brush the tops with melted butter.
- Let rise another hour.
- When loaves have doubled in
size, bake in oven for 5 to 10 minutes or until they have begun
to brown.
- Reduce heat to 350°F and finish
baking for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
