Ingredients

  • 400 g floury potatoes
  • 350 g wheat flour
  • 300 g wholemeal flour
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tsp sugar or rice sirup
  • 7 g dry yeast
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 100 g nuts of your choice
  • 300 g water lukewarm

Instructions

  • Wash the potatoes, peel them, cut them into pieces and boil them in enough salted water until they are soft. Then press them through the potato ricer or mash them thoroughly with a fork.
  • Mix the potato mixture with all the other ingredients and knead with your hands or in a kneading machine for 10 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest in a warm place for at least an hour.
  • Carefully divide the dough in two and place in the greased moulds (round mould or loaf tin, see above). Work as gently as possible and do not knead the dough. Let the loaves rest in the molds for 1-2 more hours.
  • Heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius or 352 degrees Fahrenheit and then bake the loaves in the oven for 30 minutes.
  • Store in an airtight container until ready to eat. The bread can be stored in the freezer for several months.
