This is something I came up with when I had some leftover proofed sourdough starter that I needed to use up. And it turned out to be yummy! I used my KitchenAid mixer to mix and knead the dough, but I suppose you could make this dough in your bread machine, then pull it out, shape it and bake in the oven. Note: Prep time does not include rising time.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups proofed sourdough starter
1 cup milk, warmed
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/3 cup molasses
1/4 cup potato flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
4 -4 1/2 cups bread flour
Directions:
1. If using an ABM, place ingredients in bread machine pan in order according to the manufacturer's specifications.
2. Select dough cycle and press start.
3. If using KitchenAid mixer, or doing by hand, combine all ingredients and knead.
4. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface and shape into desired loaf.
5. Place in greased loaf pan and let rise, covered, until dough has doubled.
6. Uncover and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until bread sounds hollow when tapped.
7. Immediately remove from pan and let cool on wire rack.
8. For a soft crust, brush top with melted butter.
