potato bread

Ingredients for 1 servings:

• 500 g flour
• 30 g yeast
• 250 ml milk
• 50 g sugar
• 50 g butter
• 2 egg yolks
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp marjoram
• 1 tsp caraway seeds
• 1 tsp cardamom
• 1 tsp coriander
• 200 g bacon, streaky
• 2 onions

• Flour for the mold

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 2 hours 30 minutes

Important: All ingredients should be at approximately the same temperature during preparation! Pile the sifted flour on a clean work surface, make a hole in the center, and pour in the yeast dissolved in the milk. Add the sugar. Cover and let the mixture rise for about 15 minutes. After the “resting period,” spread the spices and salt over the edge of the flour, add the flakes of butter, pour the egg yolks into the center, and knead the mixture into a yeast dough. Let the finished dough rest, covered, for 30 minutes. In the meantime, dice the bacon and fry it in a pan. Sauté the diced onions in the rendered fat until translucent. Then let the bacon and onions cool. Press the potatoes through a spaetzle press and add to the dough. Once cooled, add the onions and bacon and knead everything thoroughly. Pour the finished dough into a floured loaf pan and bake at 200°C on the bottom rack for about 45-60 minutes.
