Soft, fluffy pull-apart potato bread topped with toasted sesame seeds, baked until golden and tender with a rich, buttery crumb.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup mashed potato, freshly boiled and mashed
- 1 cup warm milk
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons white sesame seeds
- 1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon milk for egg wash
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm milk and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy.
- Add mashed potato, melted butter, egg, and salt. Gradually mix in flour until a soft dough forms.
- Knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Let dough rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Divide into equal balls and arrange in the prepared pan. Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
