At last I found bread that my hubby really enjoyed eating it 🙂 Yeah… For long time I baked only bread without the crust. But now I have big hopes that we will make a break with it and start baking this potato bread. By the way, the taste of this bread is slightly similar to “švilpikai” 🙂
Potato bread
Time needed:
Yields: 2 small loaves or 1 kg loaf
Calories: 2266 kcal / all
Ingredients:
- 500 g superior grade flour
- 1 tsp. salt
- 15 g butter
- 7 g active dry yeast
- 250 g boiled potatoes, cold and mashed
- about 250 g water or milk, warm
- sunflower oil for greasing baking forms
Directions:
- Pour flour and salt to a bowl, rub in butter, mix in yeast.
- Put mashed potatoes and rub in the flour.
- In the middle make a hole and pour water just to make soft and quite sticky dough.
- On the floured surface knead the dough till it becomes smooth and tensile.
- Form a ball and put it in the oiled big bowl. Cover with the oiled cling film and let rise in the warm place for an hour or till the dough will double.
- Take out the dough on the lightly floured surface and punch a few times. Knead until the dough will be smooth and tensile..
- Grease with the oil baking forms.
- Divide the dough in halves, form loaves.
- Put them in baking forms, cover with oiled cling film and let stand for 30 minutes or till the dough will rise.
- Bake in 230°C preheated oven 10 minutes, then low down the heat to 200°C and bake for 20-25 minutes more or till the bread will brown.
- Knock the loaves bottom. If you hear hollow sound – it’s ready.
- Enjoy!
Notes: I prepared dough in bread machine. Then took the dough, kneaded a little bit, formed a loaf and put it to bread machine form just without mixers. Left to rise for an half-an-hour, then baked about 40-50 minutes.

Boiled potato pancakes with cabbage filling
Bored of eating potatoes and cabbages? Don’t know what to do with them? This is the solution I found yesterday on the internet. It’s a little bit time consuming, but it’s cheap. A day before a boiled potatoes and an egg, braised cabbage with onion. So the next day I had only to form pancakes and bake. My hubby was nicely surprised with the taste, and I – with the smell (I remember it from my childhood).
Coffee-cake with cherries
Refreshing coffee-cake with light cherry sourness. At the beginning I was afraid that the recipe uses too much cherries, but when we tasted this coffee-cake we understood that the balance of sweetness and sourness is just perfect.
Crepes rolls with minced meat
Loved from the first bite 🙂 Especially liked it my hubby – he’s the spicy food lover. For the children I didn’t even let them to taste 🙂 Not because of jealousy, just they still love mild tastes.
Buns Maize with yeast
Maybe when you take a look at the recipe you think that it is ordinary yeasted buns. And you will be wright 🙂 We just liked that they are not too sweet, and the shape of buns look pretty. These buns are popular in our family. I also tried to make rabbit shape buns for children but understood that here I need to practise a lot 🙂
Russian pancake baked in an oven
The first pancake that baked out grate. Others that I’ve tries were some how not good – too much milk, or too much berries. But this time pancake was fluffy, and tender. Only next time I’ll try to bake it in a larger form, because this time it came out very thick and that’s why taste was like curd bake but without curd 🙂 But it’s tasty, easy and quick. And you don’t have to stand near the pan.
