Raised Potato Doughnuts
1 pk Dry yeast 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes 1/4 cup of warm water 1 Egg 1/2 cup of milk 3/4 teaspoon of salt 2 tablespoons of butter 3 1/4 cups of flour 1/4 cup of sugar
Combine the dry yeast with the warm (110ºF.) water. Set aside. Heat th milk with the butter and sugar in a small saucepan until the butter begins to melt. Cool to lukewarm. Combine the mashed potatoes with the egg in a large bowl. Stir in the cooled milk mixture, the dissolved yeast and the salt. Gradually beat in enough of the flour to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured board. Knead until smooth. Place in a lightly buttered bowl, turning to grease the entire outside surface. Cover. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk (1-1 1/2 hours). Punch down. Knead again. Roll out on a lightly floured board to a thickness of 1/4". Cut out using a floured doughnut cutter. Cover. Let rise until doubled. Preheat the oil in the deep fryer. Fry doughnuts until browned on both side (about 2 minutes). Drain. Sprinkle with sugar. Yields 18 Doughnuts
