Potato and Herb Bread for the Bread Machine
When I was young, in middle school, my homeroom teacher would make a special bread for everyone on their birthday. It would be whatever type of bread the student requested. I’m not sure how everyone knew, but her potato bread was by far the favorite. Out of 25 students I’m pretty sure we had 20 potato breads over the course of the year.
After many years of attempting potato bread after potato bread, herb mixes, and other various recipes, I have finally figured out her delicious potato bread!
