12 servings
For the dough
- 1 medium russet potato (about 8 oz), peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
- ½ cup whole milk, warmed to 110°f (43°c)
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 standard packet)
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 ¼ tsp fine salt
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
For brushing
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- 1
Place the potato chunks in a small saucepan, cover with cold water by 1 inch, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until completely tender and a fork slides through without resistance, about 12–15 minutes. Drain, then mash or rice the potato until completely smooth — no lumps. Measure out 3/4 cup of mashed potato and let it cool to room temperature. (Reserve any extra for another use.)

In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Stir briefly and let stand until foamy and fragrant, about 5–10 minutes. If the mixture does not foam, the yeast is not active — start over with fresh yeast.
