Leftover Mashed Potato Cornbread Recipes

TENDER POTATO BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in butter, until pieces of butter are no larger than peas. Use a fork to stir in mashed potatoes, breaking them up into chunks. Make a well in the mixture, and pour in egg, water and milk. Stir into a loose dough using the fork.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead for 6 or 8 times so the dough holds together. Pat the dough out to about 3/4 inch thickness, and cut into circles with a biscuit cutter or drinking glass. Place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet. Brush the tops with 2 tablespoons milk.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until bottoms are golden.

Steps:

• In a mixer with a dough hook, blend mashed potatoes and milk. Let cool to a warm but not hot temperature. Add yeast, water and 2 Tablespoons of sugar. Mix well and cover with a dish towel. Let mixture sit for 5 - 10 minutes, allowing yeast to poof and activate. Add eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, and melted butter. Blend well. Add flour 1/2 cup at a time until all flour has been mixed in or until dough no longer sticks to the sides of bowl. Coat a large bowl with cooking spray. Add dough and then spray top of dough with cooking spray. Cover with a dish towel and let sit for 1 hour in a draft free spot or until mixture is doubled in size. After mixture has doubled, take all your anger out on it and punch it a few times. Prepare two bread pans with cooking spray or a liner and set aside. Cut dough in half and work half the dough to shape into a loaf of bread, tucking sides under as needed. Place dough in bread pan. Repeat for second half of dough. Cover with towel and allow to rise for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350*F Place both bread pans in oven and bake for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, cover with foil and bake for additional 15 - 20 minutes or until dough sounds hollow when you thump on the top. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before turning out of pan and allowing to cool to room temperature on a cooling rack.
