The recipe for herb bread makes a 2 pound loaf, perfect for going along with dinner, or for sandwich bread. We use a Zojirushi Bread Machine, that has a 2 pound capacity, but this recipe will work as long as your machine can handle up to 2 pounds. I like my Zoji as it produces a normal looking loaf of bread (instead of a high loaf). This loaf came out a little sunken on top, but was none the less delicious. Ugly, but tasty works for me.
Potato and Rosemary Bread
Ingredients:
- 1 2/3 cups water*
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 480 grams all-purpose flour (4 cups)
- 2/3 cup instant mashed potatoes (dry)
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1½ tsp fine sea salt
- 2 tsp dry active yeast
Directions:
Add the ingredients in order listed. Set machine for a basic loaf.
Remove once baked promptly, and cool on a wire rack. Store cooled bread in a plastic bread bag.
*If using a bread machine that doesn’t warm the liquid, be sure to use the recommended temperature for your water.
Makes 1 loaf.
- Slice when cool and freeze for later use, it thaws quickly
