Ingredients:
2 (1/4 ounce) packages active dry yeast |
1 3/4 cups warm water |
1 cup mashed sweet potato (without milk or butter) |
1/2 cup butter, plus |
1 tablespoon butter, softened and divided |
1/2 cup honey |
1 egg |
2 teaspoons salt |
3 cups whole wheat flour |
3 1/4-3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sweet potatoes, 1/2 cup butter, honey, egg, salt and whole wheat flour; beat until smooth.
2. Stir in enough all-purpose flour to form a soft dough.
3. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
4. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about an hour.
5. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Shape into loaves and place into two greased 9 x5 loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes.
6. Bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown (cover loosely with foil if browns too quickly).
7. Remove from pans to wire racks.
8. Melt remaining butter, brush over warm bread. Cool.
