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.

Chocolate cake with apples
This recipe waited for a year because last year somehow I was late – apples were gone, and I didn’t want to buy them. So this year this is my first (and the only) apple cake. And it was a really good cake! I baked only half of the recipe, but I got only one slice – my kids ate almost half of it at once. I could treat my parents only with the small slices… The cake is very moist and in reality it looks better than in the book. And I won’t judge my photos 🙂
Crepes stuffed with broccoli and cheese
I’m very excited when the recipe which I chose to prepare is admitted 110 percents. I wanted to make these crepes all week long, but all week I had no time to spend in the kitchen. And only this weekend the time has come 🙂 I’m very glad that I made only half portion because if there were more than four crepes I couldn’t stop eating. The filling is so light, with the gentle taste of broccoli and very nice taste of cheese. My hubby said he wasn’t hungry but ate one crepe and was very excited 🙂 The next time I will not make our usual crepes with cheese filling, but give a little bit more time and make these crepes.
Crepes filled with brinza cheese
Tomorrow is Mardi Gras, and it seems, if I had no kids, I could forget it. But not now, because my kids already said what pancakes I should bake for their school. And as always my mind is busy about ideas what I could make tasty to feed my family. These crepes takes it all – they are very delicious and very satisfying. And everything in preparation is very simple and clear. But every time I prepare them, all just start to fight for them. For me, it gives a lot of pleasure. Since it is very tasty, it is difficult to stop eating them, so I make them not very often but during Mardi Gras you really can treat yourself.
Swirled pumpkin cream cheese cake
It looks like simple ordinary pumpkin cake, but special taste gives cream cheese. It takes cake to another level 🙂
Just very tasty pancakes
Autorius: Aušra Data: 2009-07-28 Very tasty pancakes 🙂 We baked them for several times. Once when I had no milk I pour cream with water in equal parts, and the taste was fantastic. This time …
