This is a very easy and delicious recipe.

1 c. sugar
1 c. potato water
1 c. mashed potatoes
1 pkg. yeast
1 c. milk
1 c. melted shortening
1 egg
Enough flour to stiffen

Boil enough potatoes to make 1 cup mashed potatoes and 1 cup water. Put in large bowl: 1

cup potatoes, sugar, water, yeast and shortening; mix. Allow to cool, then add milk and

egg; mix. Add flour to stiffen. Let rise until double, punch down. Shape into buns or

loaves, let rise again. Bake at 375 degrees until golden brown (10-12 minutes for buns).

Butter the tops after baking.

1 Day old buns are equally good with a barbeque, wrap them in aluminum foil and place the parcel on the 'Low' indirect heat of your gas grill for 2 to 3 minutes. Delicious!

Hey Bill I make this recipe and portion it out into rolls and cut the bake time to 15 min or it will make 2 loaves of bread.

Old-Fashioned Potato Bread
Ingredients:
3 medium white potatoes, pared and cubed
2 cups warm (110 F) water or potato water
2 Tbsp shortening
2-1/4 tsp or 1 pkg. (1/4 oz.) active dry yeast
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp salt
6-1/2 cups bread flour
Egg white, lightly beaten (optional)
Preparation:
Put cubed potatoes in large saucepan with 2-1/2 cups of water. Bring to boil and reduce heat to a simmer for 15 minutes or until potatoes break apart when stuck with a fork. Drain potatoes, reserving 2 cups of the potato water. Mash potatoes with a fork and put in large bowl. Add potato water to bowl. If there is not enough potato water to make 2 cups, add more water to make 2 cups. Add shortening to bowl and stir until dissolved. Set bowl aside until the potato mix is lukewarm or 110 degrees F.

Stir in yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix in enough bread flour to make a thick dough that can be kneaded by hand. Turn dough out onto board and knead for 8 minutes, breaking up any large clumps of potato with your fingers. Put dough in greased bowl and turn dough over in the bowl so that the dough top is also lightly greased. Cover with clean kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour in a warm, draft-free place.

Punch down. Turn dough out onto lightly floured board and knead out bubbles for 5 minutes. Divide dough in half. Form each half into a loaf. Set each loaf into a greased 5.25 x 9 x 2.75 inch loaf pan. Cover loaves with kitchen towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 30-45 minutes or until dough is double in bulk.

Uncover bread and brush on egg white for glossy look. Bake at 375 degrees F for 45 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when tapped on. Let bread cool on rack. Serve warm or cold.
