Cheesy Potato Bread image

Two crusty golden-brown loaves with terrific flavor and texture are what you'll get when you try this recipe. Potatoes and cheese make an unusual but delicious combination for a yeast bread. My family loves it served with soup or stew on cold days. -Deb Amrine, Grand Haven, Michigan

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 loaves.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
1 cup half-and-half cream
5 tablespoons butter, melted, divided
1 tablespoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
5-1/2 to 6 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups finely shredded peeled potatoes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add cream, 3 tablespoons butter, salt, cayenne pepper and 2-1/2 cups flour; beat on medium for 2 minutes. Stir in potatoes and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. , Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes. (Dough will feel slightly sticky.) Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 1 hour. , Punch the dough down. Pat into a 1/2-in.-thick rectangle. Sprinkle cheese evenly over dough. Fold dough over the cheese and knead into dough. Shape into two round loaves; place in greased 9-in. round baking pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. , Cut an X on top of each loaf; brush with remaining butter. Bake at 400° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to cool on wire racks.

Love this recipe! The bread is so soft and fluffy, and the cheesy potato filling is delicious. I've made it several times and it's always a hit.

This bread is so easy to make and it always turns out great. I love the way the cheese and potatoes melt together in the bread.

I made this bread last night and it was amazing! The cheesy potato filling was so flavorful and the bread was perfectly soft and fluffy. I will definitely be making this again.
