Potato Buns
Recipe courtesy Phyliss Pellman Good
1 cup sugar
1 cup mashed potatoes
1/2 cup lard or shortening
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 to 2 packs yeast
1 cup warm water
5 -6 cups flour
Mix together well the sugar, potatoes, lard, eggs, and salt. Dissolve the yeast
in 1 cup warm water; then add that to the above mixture. Stir in about 3 cups
flour. Add the remaining 2 cups flour while kneading. Knead until the dough is
no longer sticky but moist. Let rise until doubled. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
F. Roll out dough to a 3/4 to 1-inch thickness. Cut into bun shapes with a jar
or doughnut cutter (or cloverleaf or crescent-shaped cutter) and place on
greased cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Let them rise until puffy but not
doubled (they should not be touching). Brush with milk. Bake until lightly
golden brown, about 12 minutes. Yield: 3 dozen. Freeze, if desired.
