Soft, fluffy potato bread rolls that elevate any meal with their subtle sweetness and comforting texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups mashed potatoes
  • 1/2 cup milk, warmed
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg (optional, for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm mashed potatoes, warmed milk, melted butter, sugar, and salt.
  2. Sprinkle the active dry yeast evenly over the mixture. Let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
  3. Start adding the all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough begins to form.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  5. Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour.
  6. Punch down the dough gently to release excess air. Then shape it into golf ball-sized rolls.
  7. Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  9. If desired, brush the tops of the rolls with a beaten egg for a golden color.
  10. Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.

Notes

Store leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes.
