Description

These Soft Sourdough Potato Buns are a delightful combination of tangy sourdough and fluffy potato, creating a perfect bun for burgers or sandwiches. The sourdough adds a depth of flavor while the potato ensures a soft and tender crumb. Enjoy these buns fresh for the ultimate sandwich experience!


Ingredients

For the Sourdough Starter:

  • 1 cup sourdough starter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup water

For the Dough:

  • 2 medium potatoes, cooked and mashed
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 4-5 cups bread flour


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sourdough Starter: In a bowl, combine the sourdough starter, flour, and water. Cover and let sit at room temperature for 8-12 hours.
  2. Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, mix the mashed potatoes, sugar, melted butter, salt, eggs, and sourdough starter. Gradually add the bread flour until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead and Rise: Knead the dough until smooth, then place it in a greased bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled in size.
  4. Shape and Bake: Divide the dough into buns, place on a baking sheet, and let rise again. Bake in a preheated oven until golden brown.
  5. Cool and Enjoy: Let the buns cool before slicing and using for your favorite sandwiches.

Notes

  • You can add herbs or cheese to the dough for extra flavor.
  • These buns freeze well for future use.
