Kitchen Notes
This bread is very flexible with the rise time. We baked a loaf at 6 and 12 hours and both turned out the same. Use any leftover potatoes for this bread. Instead of basil and garlic, experiment with other seasonings. Try adding bacon and cheese, too!

Can’t wait to try this! Would love it if you would have print capability for recipes on each page with the recipe… is that doable?
Great site, thanks for hours of fun baking… and eating!
Laura, you might also try highlighting the recipe, then right click. An option to print should come up. Hope this helps. I can’t wait to try this bread too!
How long should the dough bake? thanks–I agree, great site!
Never mind–I found the cook time at the top of the page!
Sounds so yummy! I can’t wait to try this one!
@Laura–I copy and paste the recipe into my Word document and print it from there. Might this help you?
can this be made with gluten free flour? if so, what changes need to be made? Thanks
So do you have a recipe for Amish Friendship Spudnuts since it is National Potato Day! That would be delicious! Suudnuts: Donuts made from potatoes! Here is a recipe maybe you convert!
Spudnuts:
Prep Time:
20 Min
Cook Time:
20 Min
Ready In:
1 Hr 40 Min
Ingredients
4 boiling potatoes, peeled and chopped
3 cups milk
1 cup white sugar
1 cup shortening
1 teaspoon salt
6 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
4 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
6 eggs
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
In a small saucepan, cover peeled potatoes with water. Bring water to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Let cool and mash.
Scald the milk and add the sugar, shortening, 2 cups mashed potatoes and salt. Mix well.
In an upright mixer with a dough hook attachment. Add the potato mixture, flour, lemon juice, lemon zest, water, yeast eggs and nutmeg. Mix until well mixed, dough will be a bit sticky. Cover and let rise until doubled in size.
Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface and cut with a doughnut cutter. Place the cut doughnuts on a greased baking sheet, cover and let rise until doubled in size.
In a hot fryer or deep fry pan heat shortening or canola oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Carefully place 2 to 3 doughnuts in pan. Turn when lightly golden. Lift out when done and drain on paper towels. Glaze or roll in sugar.
Sounds yummy, Terri. We’ll have to give it a try sometime. Yum.
I am just wondering why you stress baking one loaf at a time? I have a large oven, and large baking sheets. What would happen if i tried to bake both loaves ot once???
