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

- 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.

Muffins with berries
It was really impulsive baking. I saw them in a magazine for parents in a section “Baking together”. 🙂 Together? So I asked if my kids want to bake something and they happily agreed. So I just measured all ingredients in purpose that my kids were not bored, and they started to work. The result came out perfect – smell was fantastic, and the taste was remarkable – berries gave some refreshing sourness and banana gave moisture. Even next day they were very good and left over disappeared too quickly. So I’m thinking to repeat them very soon again.
Cookies Hoot Owls
One more way to make your kids happy. Preparation takes time because you have to chill the dough long. But the cookies are delicious and we liked it, out kids kindergarden liked them too 🙂
Ranger cookies
A few days ago I thought that I baked cookies very long time ago. And my mother mentioned that she liked the cookies that baked with chocolate. And I wanted oat cookies. So when I saw this recipe I decided to make them 🙂 Because my hubby don’t want to eat sweets, almost all cookies went to my work. And I have to say that I had no cookies to take home 🙂
Fluffy cottage cheese pancakes
Very delicious pancakes. Fluffy, very light. Just melts in your mouth. When I remember their taste I’m suffused with warmth and good memories of the weekend.
Cake with zucchini
Very delicious cake and zucchini just gives a lot of moistness. I baked it five times this summer and every day it disappeared very quickly. At last I left some cake for photography and next day when I had a little bit free time I made some photos. By the way, the cake had a lot of moistness even after a few days.
